Sad infographic for anyone who wants it

Doesn’t make a distinction between militants and civilians.

Militants are estimated to be about 15,000 dead.

The infographic shows 40% killed are men. (Though it does include 'elderly' in the 60%.) 40% of 40,000 is 16,000. 40% of the 34000 recognized is 13,600.

So that tracks, sort of, with Israeli claims it is all Hamas.

The elderly category is a statistical trick to hide that its majority men. Any 17 year old militant is hiding in the children category as well.

If you compare women at 18% and men at 40%, you get a better idea.
