They do look pretty similar to me, but can’t say without numbers. Keeping in mind the population graph is a couple years old - half of a bar height - they both show a minor peak/inflection around age 30 that’s maybe 2/3 of the major peak around 5. Babies seem to be spared from the bombing, but that could be fewer births or increased non-violent infant mortality.
IMO, it’s not a great data set to claim Israelis are intentionally targeting children, but it is pretty good for saying they are not intentionally targeting military-age men.
Nobody implied they’re intentionally targeting children with their bombing.
They’re indiscriminately bombing all Palestinians. If they were targeting Hamas, and attempting to limit civilian casualties, you’d see a much higher proportion of adult males.
