/damage
op 2Entities/damage arrived in 1.19.4 and does what /effect instant_damage never could: it deals a specific damage type, so armour, resistance, enchantments and the death message all behave as if the damage came from that source.

Common questions about /damage
›How much is one heart?
Two. Damage is measured in half-hearts, so /damage @s 20 kills a full-health player outright.
›How do I make a player death say someone killed them?
Use the by form with the attacking entity. The death message then names that entity, exactly as a real kill would.
