More Numbers for 2006

An Israeli human rights group, B'Tselem, claims that three times as many Palestinians were killed by Israeli security forces in 2006 than in 2005, while about half as many Israelis were killed by Palestinian attacks in 2006 as compared to 2005.

Also, 9,075 Palestinians are being held in Israeli jails, 738 without knowing the charges.

Where and how B'Tselem got this information is not specified.
