    I don't know of any reliable figures for people killed in recent times for apostasy or rejecting a religious belief.

    However the cost to the Palestinians for rejecting the military occupation of their country has been considerable as the figures of the latest Israeli assault illustrate.

    2014 Israel–Gaza conflict

    From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Between 2,140[27] and 2,310[25] Gazans were killed (including 513 children)[34][56] and between 10,626[25] and 10,895[29] and were wounded. 66 Israeli soldiers, 5 Israeli civilians (including one child)[57] and one Thai civilian were killed[21] and 469 IDF soldiers and 261 Israeli civilians were injured.[23] The Gaza Health Ministry, UN and some human rights groups reported that 69–75% of the Palestinian casualties were civilians;[21][26][29] Israeli officials estimated that around 50% of those killed were civilians.[30][58] On 5 August, OCHA stated that 520,000 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip (approximately 30% of its population) might have been displaced, of whom 485,000 needed emergency food assistance[24] and 273,000 were taking shelter in 90 UN-run schools.[59] The UN calculated that more than 7,000 homes for 10,000 families were razed, together with an additional 89,000 homes damaged, of which roughly 10,000 were severely affected by the bombing.[60] Rebuilding costs were calculated to run from 4-6 billions dollars, over 20 years
