Israel disputes Gaza genocide claims using local population data

Arguments regarding accusations of genocide against Israel in Gaza are being challenged by data from Hamas-led institutions. According to these statistics, while approximately 74,000 deaths have been recorded in a population of about 2 million, there were also approximately 121,000 births during the same period.

Proponents of this view argue that the net population increase of nearly 50,000 individuals contradicts the definition of genocide, which involves the intended destruction of a people. Additionally, the report notes that Israel has facilitated polio vaccinations for approximately 600,000 Gazan children and disputes claims that Israel is intentionally causing famine in the region.
