Original Note:
While technically accurate (the Gazans do say that), as an arm of Hamas, the ministry has a vested interest in overstating casualties and labelling fighters as civilians. Thus there is uncertainty as to the accuracy of these numbers, and this should be mentioned. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/oct/26/can-we-trust-casualty-figures-from-the-hamas-run-gaza-health-ministry
