"AOAV says Israel "was by far the most injurious state actor in 2023", with more than 1,000 attacks leading to 12,950 civilian casualties - dead and injured."

Keep in mind that Israel's bombing of Gaza in 2023 was for just 3 months (Oct, Nov, Dec)

Russia was second, with its war in Ukraine causing 8,351 civilian casualties.

For entirety of 2023 btw.

Israel's military operation, which began on 7 October in response to the Hamas attacks, also contributed to a huge increase in the number of air strikes recorded, the charity said.

Israel can claim "military operation" but when Russia does it, it's "invasion". Also, BBC always forgets to mention War in Donbass when it comes to Russian invasion but always mentions October 7 when talking about Israel.
