Death toll in Gaza could exceed 186,000: The Lancet
TRT World ^ | 7/8/24 | TRT World

By June 19, 2024, the Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza reported that 37,396 people had been killed in Gaza since last October, according to a report by the prestigious medical journal The Lancet.

These figures, while contested by Israeli authorities, are supported by Israeli intelligence, the UN, and WHO, and are backed by independent analyses comparing changes in UNRWA staff deaths with those reported by the Ministry.

The destruction of infrastructure in Gaza has made data collection increasingly difficult, forcing the Health Ministry to rely on information from media sources and first responders.

As of May 10, 2024, 30 percent of the 35,091 deaths were unidentified.

Full press genocide. A Palestinian child doesn’t have to necessarily be killed under the ruble that used to be her apartment building. Starvation accomplishes the goal more efficiently.

I don’t care if the Israelis completely depopulate Gaza. In fact I recommend they do just that.

Crappola. The numbers come from the hammies, uncorroborated and unverified. The real number is likely on the order of 5K or 10K, 20 tops. These gouls would be parading the bodies for the TV cameras and useful-idiot western “journalists” if there were that many casualties. As for ‘genocide’ only an ignoramus and/or idiot truly believes this claim. Ask one of then to define ‘genocide’. The IDF is one of the best militaries in the world. If the Israelis were committing genocide, there would be 1,000,000 dead gazzies by now.

What do people typically do with squatters? They get them off their land, and the Israelis have as much right as you or I do to eradicate the squatters from their territory.

I agree. We have conducted ourselves better by establishing corridors to usher the innoncents out of the battlefield and into safe zones, where we will not bomb, even though the hostiles are launching from safe zones. Then we supplied tons of food, medicines, etc., to the safe zone, and also supplied electricity for free to the whole area. Oh wait, that is what the Israelis have done, and we have usually flattened the hostiles and caused hundreds of thousands of casualties. I must have mixed up the armies somehow. But we know that the Hamas Health Agency is always truthful about their casualty lists, don’t we?

Gaza fatality figures from leftist and Islamic sources have been garbage (including this claim that the numbers are supported by Israeli sources, yet another lie.)

I’m referring to non-combatants....if the number is 20-25K terrorists and their enablers, then the total is realistic...

Not even close. It should be 10,000 per murdered Israeli.
