The war in Gaza has driven the surge in casualties, with at least 333 humanitarian personnel killed since October 7, 2023.

I wonder who the killings were done by.

Do you have numbers on that? I know about some Israel hit, but not THAT much. So would be interesting.

…so far

So 333 aid workers killed in Gaza since 2023, and a total of 281 casualties in 2024.

Would anyone like to take a guess at which country is responsible for killing the majority of aid workers? Anyone?
