"If true, that is very interesting especially since 25% of them were killed by a highly restrained IDF"

In conventional statistics citing a percentage attrition requires one know how many of the object there were in the begining and how many there were after. As far as I know none of these two requisited have been established even speculatively. This would tend to cast doubt on your assertion of 25%.
