This article has been mentioned by a media organization:

Aviya Kushner (January 8, 2025). "What critics miss when they accuse Israel of 'scholasticide' and 'domicide'". The Forward. Retrieved March 19, 2025. I scrolled down for an example of the term. "The recent Israeli bombing of the Gaza Strip is considered to be one of the most destructive campaigns in history," Wikipedia noted. Something about that language caught my eye.

In the referenced articles, Balakrishnan Rajagopal cites several recent examples of what he considers to be a domicide -Aleppo, Grozny, Mariupol, Myanmar, Sudan and Gaza.

Currently, the only example in this section is Gaza - the section should be rewritten in a more balanced way, with other examples added and given equal weight. Zlmark (talk) 06:27, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

This also applies to the choice of photos, with Gaza being the only recent example. Zlmark (talk) 06:30, 21 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
