It’s just a very smart way to spread propaganda by using a real statistic out of context.
Of course “70% of the victims are either children or women” sounds horrible - until you realize that a majority of the population there in underage (and therefore children) and that Hama’s is actively using underage children as soldiers - and if you look at the difference between the age structure and the casualties adult males are more likely to be victims than the other groups which are actually underrepresented.

That’s because it is horrible. The vast majority of Israel’s victims are innocent and that includes adult males, the vast majority of whom are also innocent.

Why is that tho?
What do you think has been happening there for 70 years to cause so many people to die either as adults or before becoming adults that could have resulted in this unique situation when practically every other country is facing aging populations and lower childbirth rates?
Why do you think all those children Israel has killed won’t grow up to be adults?
And what do you think happened to all the children born in Gaza 20 years ago?
So you are basically stating that since this graph looks like a countries’ normal age demographic, Israel is randomly bombing cities without any discrimination, which is a war crime. We agree with you.
Hamas does not use children as soldiers. There would not be any reason for them to do so, as they lack weapons not manpower.
adult males are more likely to be victims than the other groups which are actually underrepresented.
Only slightly. The reason is similar to how America conducted itself in Iraq. Every adult male is considered a valid target with zero evidence required.

Almost all poor countries have a demographic like this.
Palestine is among the poorest countries in the world
