A study by Brown University found 114,000 excess deaths in Gaza between 10-23 and 9-24. That is 5% of the population. It found that Israel had starved 62,413 people in Gaza. Most of those were little children. That means Israel deliberately starved 32,000+ children to death in Gaza.
There were an estimated 5,000 deaths in Gaza from lack of access to care for chronic diseases. There is nothing for deaths from infectious diseases, maternal/neonatal deaths, and others.
An earlier report by the Lancet argued that there had already been 186,000 direct and indirect deaths in Gaza by July 5, 2024. That is 8% of the population.
