DCI/PS Documentation Unit Statistics

(Last Updated: 10 May 2005)

 

A key component of DCI/PS’s work is documenting violations of Palestinian children’s rights. Since the beginning of the second Palestinian uprising against occupation, or Intifada, DCI/PS has documented the case of each Palestinian child killed as a result of Israeli military and settler presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territories.

 

The tables below are updated monthly. For more detailed statistics, please contact the DCI/PS Documentation Unit.
