The conflict between Israel and Palestine has lasted since 1948 to the present day. Israeli attacks on Palestine and militant groups, and vice versa, have resulted in thousands of deaths.

Despite this, World Bank data reports that the populations of both Israel and Palestine have continued to increase over the last three decades. The Palestinian population in this data refers to those in the West Bank and Gaza.

During the period 1990-2022, Israel's population consistently surpassed that of Palestine.

The latest data shows that Israel's population reached 9.55 million in 2022. This is a 2.02% increase year-on-year (YoY) from 9.36 million in the previous year.

This means that Israel's population in 2022 increased 4.5 times compared to 1990, when it was only 2.11 million.

Similarly, the Palestinian population has also steadily increased over the past three decades. In 2022, the population of Palestine in the West Bank and Gaza Strip totaled 5.04 million.

Previously, the Palestinian population in the West Bank and Gaza Strip was recorded at 1.97 million in 1990. This represents a 2.55-fold increase from 1990 to 2022.

Currently, the war between Israel and Palestine has intensified. The war erupted after the Palestinian militant group Hamas launched an attack on Israeli territory on Saturday, October 7, 2023.

Israel quickly retaliated with attacks on Palestine and imposed a blockade on key access points in Gaza.

According to data compiled by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA), as of Monday, October 16, 2023, the highest number of Palestinian casualties were in the Gaza Strip: approximately 2,808 deaths and 10,850 injuries. In the West Bank, there were 58 deaths and 1,176 injuries.

On the other hand, Israeli casualties amounted to 1,300 deaths (no new deaths reported since Thursday, October 12, 2023) and 4,121 injuries.
