Palestine Datasets

data.techforpalestine.org

This repo provides an open source dataset intended to show the human toll of Israel's hostilities across Palestine since Oct 7, 2023. There are three primary datasets:

  • killed-in-gaza.json has a list of known fatalities in Gaza with their name, age, sex
  • casualties_daily.json has daily reports of aggregate killed & injury counts for Gaza
  • west_bank_daily.json has daily reports of aggregate killed & injured counts for West Bank along with number of settler attacks

There's also the source for the static documentation website under site/.

See sub readmes for more info on data sources in site/docs.
