Interactive database maintained by B'Tselem: The Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories, tracking Palestinian and Israeli fatalities from 2000. It is noteworthy to emphasize the data's scope and limitations: the database tracks fatalities in the West Bank and inside Israel up to March 30, 2026, but Gaza Strip data is only updated through October 6, 2023, meaning that it does not reflect the scale of killing during the War on Gaza. Data on fatalities inside Israel also excludes October 7, 2023. Users should consult this resource for pre-October 2023 context and West Bank data, but should use Gaza-specific sources for War on Gaza casualty figures. This is valuable for researchers who need pre-October 2023 fatality data and ongoing West Bank casualty statistics from an Israeli human rights source. B'Tselem's status as an Israeli organization gives this data particular credibility in debates where Israeli sources are weighted more heavily. Users should note the Gaza data cutoff when using this resource.
