Data from conflict-tracking group Airwars suggests that the US-led coalition against IS in Iraq carried out 15,000 strikes between 2014 and 2017; the Israeli military has carried out 22,000 in Gaza in less than three months.

I’m curious about what constitutes a “strike”, but I’m still impressed you found a reliable source.
I looked at the guardian’s source, but they never define a “strike”.

I searched “number of Israeli bombs dropped” on duckduckgo and that was one of the first that came up, there are other stats I’ve seen referenced before like bombs dropped or mortar strikes etc. if you follow the original source cited by the Guardian it may be more specific, I haven’t looked at that yet whoops I see you say you looked at that already
