The high death toll on Israel's side undermines the perception that it is always protected with iron-clad security.
In the 2008 war on Gaza, about 1,400 Palestinians and 13 Israelis died before a ceasefire was reached.
In 2014, more than 2-thousand Palestinians were killed in Gaza.
73 Israelis died, most of them members of the armed forces.
And two years ago, another flare up resulted in 250 Palestinians killed in Gaza.
13 people died in Israel.
In contrast, the death toll of this war stands at about 400 Palestinians killed, and more than 700 Israelis killed.
Francesca Albanese is the UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories.
She says there needs to be a peaceful resolution to the conflict.
