    Have Israel given any estimates for the following?

    1) Starting number of Hamas
    2) Number eliminated so far
    3) Number still remaining

    Have they said what the target is, percentage-wise?

      Yes
      1.30-35,000
      2. 10-12,000
      3. One supposes when all of the kingpins are dead as in Iraq.

      Oddly the overall casualty figures released by Hamas are almost linear despite the phases Israel pursued but they are from a world leading "militant" organisation so they are obviously correct.

      The Israeli embassy in the UK told us they think the total number of Hamas fighters killed is "between 10,000 and 12,000".

      But they said it was hard to distinguish between civilians and combatants as many of them are not wearing military uniform and Hamas also has fighters who are aged 16 and 17.

        Hamas kills their own people if they disagree with them or are gay.

        They are a terrorist organisation who murder and rape and hold women and children hostage. Yet the BBC cant call them that. Pathetic.
        You're paraphrasing from an out of date document #JustSaying

        While the 1988 Hamas Charter had been widely criticized for its antisemitism, the 2017 document stated that Hamas' fight was not with Jews as such because of their religion but with the Zionist project. However, Hamas fell short of repudiating the original, 1988 charter, saying it was a document of its time and the new document represented Hamas's position for now.

          You don't think Hamas may be lying?

            It's nothing to do with what I think, I was highlighting a fact.
