Original Note:
The claim that 10,000 Palestinians have been killed in the conflict following the attack on October 7th comes from the Hamas-controlled ministry of health. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2023/11/06/middleeast/gaza-10k-deaths-intl/index.html The Ministry of Health has a history of inflating death tolls for example in the Al Alhi hospital explosion. https://www.wsj.com/world/middle-east/israel-tries-to-back-up-claims-it-didnt-attack-gaza-hospital-a8cc3405
