Comment on ‘No water, food, health care, toilet’: Desperation deepens in Gaza’s camps
NoneOfUrBusiness@kbin.social 6 months agoUh... No. They still use GHM numbers. The UN revised numbers are fully identified deaths, meaning people with a first and last name next to their entry in the GHM's database. This is opposed to non-fully identified deaths, where it's known that X number of people died (for example an Israeli bombed blew X people to smithereens and they're unidentifiable or there's nobody left to identify them because the whole family is dead). non-fully identified numbers are the same.

Source? Where are you getting this info? Btw, Israel just released video showing Hamas working out of UN buildings and drivng UN cars so I don’t know if I would believe much of what they say. foxnews.com/…/idf-claims-photos-show-hamas-combat…

The UN came out to correct the misunderstanding:

Also setting aside how GHM numbers are and have always been accurate according to literally everyone (Hamas has a lot to lose and nothing to gain from faking them), Fox News? Seriously? If you're gonna make claims find a source worth reading.

Okay I looked it up and here's what reputable media (which the economic times is not) has to say on the topic:

It's an abandoned UN warehouse. Hamas only came after the UN left following Israeli evacuation orders, which is very much not the implication in your link. There's nothing to investigate.

It’s drone footage, if you don’t want to watch it, that’s fine but that doesn’t mean it’s not true. I would’ve sent you a link for CNN or something but I don’t think they want you to see it so I couldn’t find where they reported on it
