According to the Palestinian News Agency (wafa), the number of Palestinians who have been killed by the Israeli occupation forces since the beginning of the Palestinian Uprising (Al-Intifadha), on September 29, 2000, was 1,448, at the end of April 2002. However, when the estimated figures of Palestinians killed in the massacres of Nablus and Jenin, during April 2002, the total figure becomes 2,053 killed and 18,935 injured. Thousands of Palestinians have been arrested, hundreds of Palestinian houses were demolished and unknown number of trees were uprooted by the Israeli occupation soldiers. Also about 441 Israelis were killed and about 1,755 were injured. The following is an attempt by Al-Jazeerah Information Center to document the occupation victims starting from the second half of February 2002 (Note: There may be some differences between the total figures provided by the Palestinian Red Crescent Society, above, and the figures provided by the Arabic media, below).
The table includes the best estimates from the PRCS and the media. There are no official Palestinian figures available. -- No data available. * An Israeli Arab woman and her child shot dead by Israeli soldiers, in the West Bank.
