According to data released by Hamas's Ministry of Health in Gaza, the population of the Gaza Strip has increased by approximately 43,000 people since the beginning of the current conflict. The figures, referenced in relation to statements made by Ron Dermer, indicate that 74,000 Gazans have been killed in Israeli attacks since the war began.
During the same period, up to September 20 of this year, there were 137,041 births recorded in the Gaza Strip. Additionally, an estimated 17,000 to 20,000 natural deaths occurred due to old age and illness, though official figures for this category are unavailable.
When combining the reported deaths from Israeli attacks with the estimated natural deaths and the number of births, the data suggests a net population growth. The article sarcastically refers to this demographic trend as "the most failed genocide in human history."
