A Problem for Palestine: Gaza's Birthrate Highest in Middle East
Gaza's TFR is 7.9, meaning the average woman in Gaza will have a total of 7.9 children in the course of her lifetime, given current birthrates. The only figures near that fertility rate anywhere in the Middle East are 7.8 in Oman, 7.6 in Yemen and 7.1 in Syria. By contrast, the West Bank TFR is 5.7, a figure closer to countries at the low end of the scale like Israel with 2.9, Türkiye with 3.6, Lebanon with 3.7, Egypt with 3.9 and Bahrain with 4.2.
Palestinian population up 9 times since 1948
