Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor estimates that over 13,000 Palestinians are either missing under debris, buried in indiscriminate mass graves, or forcibly disappeared in Israeli prisons and detention facilities, where some have even been killed. The circumstances surrounding the deaths of these prisoners and detainees have not yet been made public by the Israeli army, nor have any independent investigators been able to confirm or determine the details of their deaths. These victims’ bodies have not been exhumed, their identities have not been established, andtheir remains have not been repatriated, nor have their relatives been informed.

This estimate is based on initial reports of missing people, and the true number is likely higher. Given the ongoing military attacks and siege by the Israeli government, as well as the illegal practices of the Israeli army that have scattered Palestinian families—particularly by forcing them to repeatedly evacuate without safe passages, separating family members and forcing them to move to different areas, arresting and forcibly disappearing some of them, and cutting off communication between families—it is not possible to confirm the precise number of missing people at this time.

      With that much destruction and 2 million people, no you’re right, 30k seems very low.

      The figure has also been somewhat static for a while now, despite little food, clean water, or health services as all have been denied or destroyed by IDF terrorists. I bet the figure is at least double, but the terrorists have effectively destroyed any reporting capability by Hamas or any third party.
