Original Note:
Of the more than 2 million people living in Gaza, roughly half are under the age of 18. This would make the 6150 reported deaths roughly 0.615% of the total population of children. The author likely meant to state that "42% of deaths" were children. https://www.npr.org/2023/10/18/1206897328/half-of-gazas-population-is-under-18-heres-what-that-means-for-the-conflict#:~:text=Of%20the%20more%20than%202,Israeli%20ground%20invasion%20are%20children.
