The United Nations on Thursday parroted Hamas statistics when accounting for the number of civilians allegedly killed in Gaza during the ongoing war, making no distinction between terrorists and civilians and calling the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry repeated the claim.
“This is not a condition for humans” – @UNRWA

as the time of israel I got it. On Thursday, the Gaza Ministry of Health updated the death toll to 25,900. However, it did not say how many fighters there were.
The Times of Israel said, “This figure is unconfirmed, and it includes nearly 10,000 Hamas operatives whom Israel says were killed during fighting in the Strip, as well as civilians killed by unexploded Palestinian rockets.'' It is believed that this includes.”
The rate of approximately 1.5 civilians killed for every terrorist killed is historically low and unprecedented in urban warfare. This is also an improvement from the already low 2:1 ratio that Israel had estimated a few weeks ago, early in the invasion of Gaza.
The UN's decision to use Hamas figures not only reflects the worst of anti-Israel propaganda, but also erodes the crucial distinction between civilians and combatants that is at the heart of international humanitarian law in wartime. I also decided to do it.
Ann Baevsky, Director and Senior Editor of the Touro Institute for Human Rights and the Holocaust voice of human rights, comment: “The official UN news agency claims that all Palestinians killed in Gaza were “civilians.” Clear evidence that UN figures on Gaza are completely unreliable.
“Instead, this global organization effectively acts as Hamas's public relations arm, spreading disinformation and bloody slander against the Jewish state around the world.”
The Gaza Ministry of Health infamously lied about the number of people who died in an explosion at a Gaza City hospital early in the war, but the explosion was not at the hospital itself, but from a Palestinian bomb that accidentally landed in a parking lot. It turned out to be caused by a rocket. .
