This visual shows the names of 60,199 Palestinians killed by Israeli forces
in Gaza from 7 Oct 2023 to 31 Jul 2025. This staggering figure includes
only those whose names and ages could be identified by the Ministry of
Health in Gaza up to that date.

And that's the ones that were outright killed, and not "just" had their limbs torn off and given lifelong disabilities. How is that proportionate, fair or in any way justifiable?
(although maybe not, given that there are Israeli politicians saying everyone above the age of 5 in gaza should be cut down, so maybe I'm too optimistic).
If you were talking about combatants, you'd be correct. The main point about Gaza is that the majority of those who are killed are civilians[1]. And most civilized countries recognize[2] that civilians should be spared during armed conflicts.

If you have no more free territory to fight on, you have lost. Give up.
If someone came to your country and did that, how radical would you be?
The stranglehold of zionists in silicon valley and the US is crazy.
The murder of 72,000 people is just too political.
It's insane that so many innocent people continue to die and Tsahal continues to justify their invasion and the death of these people. Heartbreaking.
Nazis had a dedicated machinery, based on crude racism and conspiracy ideology, which was actively seeking and executing their genocide. Israels lunatics lack this, their aim is stealing land, and the mass killings are just a side effect of their religious bullshit.
Not understanding this difference derails the communication about this problem.
I see babies there who have seen this world for less than a day!
I know they don't see things well at that stage, their eyes haven't evolved yet, BUT they weren't given an opportunity to see it!!!
Can't express myself anymore
EDIT: and pathetic that it's immediately been flagged by the usual wankers.
This might not be 100% technical content, but the work, visualizations are technical.
So many people upvoted because they have empathy to both types of content, and downvotes to this type of content comes most of the time from bots controlled by IDF

If it stays removed this is probably my last interaction on HN.
It's just blatant censorship. There's not even any real political message here. It's just a fucking memorial for the tens of thousands of children (and tens of thousands of adults) that were killed, that someone coded up.
Of course there is, it’s right there in the title of the website. Even making a website to remember these deaths and not other ones is a political choice.
Kinda unrelated, but are any good sources for deaths in that whole conflict before the 7th October, including other areas? Throwing around that number does have some impact, but does not tell the whole picture and is often dismissed as being "just" a reaction to the attack on 7th October.
HN is not unbiased, and not above censorship. Political things make it to the front page all the time, but this is the wrong kind of political thing. We're not supposed to talk about ----cides, at least, this ongoing one.
Look, look sideways... until you break your neck.
That every mouse movement highlights lives lost is harrowing. Grains of sand on the beach, each with their own world and community.
Shame on the flaggers.
