Just curious, when they say children, what age? Since we know the average age of people in Palestine is 19, isn't there a significant "child" population, even if some of them are active combatants?

I don't know, usually 18, sometimes 21 or maybe even 26 for US health insurance. Wikipedia Out of 224 listed countries and territories, the West Bank ranked 48th with a total fertility rate (TFR) of 3.2, and the Gaza Strip ranked 31st with a TFR of 3.97 according to The World Factbook in 2018.

So, over 1/3 of the total death toll is children.

Yup, so when ppl say "well it's their fault for not overthrowing Hamas" they're talking about a large number of literal children vs armed and organised men.
