During the reporting period, DCI documented 1,020 cases in which Palestinian children were killed as a result of Israeli military activity. This figure does not include children killed whilst taking part in hostilities. In 81 percent of the 1,020 cases documented by DCI, the children were killed in the Gaza Strip.
In most cases involving fatalities, the children were killed during large scale Israeli military operations. For example, in 35 percent of cases documented by DCI during the reporting period, the children were killed during the State party‟s invasion of the Gaza Strip in December 2008 (“Operation Cast Lead”).
