Israel-Hamas War: where it now stands

Since October 7, 2023, and as of last week, a total of 1,667 Israelis have been killed, and of those, 706 were IDF soldiers. There have been about 17,800 wounded and more than 143,000 Israelis have been evacuated from their homes.

Since the start of the war, alerts have sounded in 935 communities, forcing Israelis to run to safe areas around 15,000 times.

Approximately 20,000 rockets, missiles and drones have been fired into Israel, according to a recent INSS report.

As of this writing, 101 hostages, both alive and deceased, are still in Hamas captivity. We are uncertain of the breakdown of the hostages, but thus far, many have been murdered in captivity and the Western media tends to blame Israel and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the behavior of the terrorists.

Thus far, 17,000 terrorists have been killed and the IDF struck about 38,000 Hamas targets throughout Gaza. 

The Hamas-run Gaza health ministry, says 41,000 Arabs have been killed, and almost 95,000 have been wounded, but they do not draw distinctions between civilians and combatants, and it's a fact that many Gazans participate in the war so it's difficult to distinguish between non-combatants and terrorists. 

Over 68,000 Israelis have been evacuated from 43 northern communities, and around 100,000 people have been evacuated from their homes in Lebanon, according to the report. 

The report also detailed the occurrences in the West Bank. According to the INSS, since the onset of the war, 4,973 terror attacks have occurred in the West Bank, killing 38 Israelis, 12 of whom were soldiers and three were police officers. In addition, 285 Israelis were wounded in these terror attacks.

Nearly 700 Arabs have been killed throughout the West Bank since the beginning of the war, according to the report, citing the Palestinian health ministry.

Approximately 4,400 Arabs were arrested, among whom 1,850 were Hamas terrorists, representing a 114% increase in the number of Arab prisoners imprisoned in Israeli jails compared with the numbers in July of 2022.

Also, in the West Bank, since the beginning of the war, there have been 1,407 incidents of violence between Arabs and settlers, with the largest number of such incidents, 300, occurring in October of last year.

Regarding protests worldwide on the war, the report showed that an average of 2,090 anti-Israel protests occur globally every month in comparison to 65 pro-Israel demonstrations.

Yemen saw the most anti-Israel protests, with 5,500 demonstrations. The US came in second, with 3,500 protests, followed by Morocco, Turkey and Iran.

The most pro-Israel protests, 317, have occurred in the US, followed by France with 108, Germany, Canada, and Australia.

Palestinian tosser dies of his wounds

West Bank -- Jamal Dweikat, a 20-year-old, anti-Semitic Palestinian Muslim man, was one of a group of anti-Semitic Muslims who tossed stones at Jewish worshippers at the Joseph's Tomb. 

The tomb is located in the city of Nablus, located in the northern West Bank.

Dweikat and his group of stone-throwers clashed with Israeli soldiers at the prayer site and he was shot in the clashes. 

The Palestinian Health Ministry announced that he died of his wounds Monday.

Some Jews believe that Joseph from the Old Testament is buried in the tomb. Muslims say a local sheikh is buried there.

In the past eight months, Palestinians have killed 28 Israelis and 2 Americans, while about 200 Palestinians were killed in the same time period, and they were identified as attackers for the most part and there were others who died in clashes.

Israel's military (the IDF) is not commenting at this time, but it's a given that the Palestinians will say they are to blame and a bunch of liberals (including Bernie Sanders) will believe them.
