Original Note:
The numbers are from the Gaza Health Ministry. While it is a branch of Hamas (considering they're governing there), human right groups consider the numbers reliable. The UN considers them accurate as well. The ministry has historically been giving accurate numbers. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/oct/26/can-we-trust-casualty-figures-from-the-hamas-run-gaza-health-ministry https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/despite-bidens-doubts-humanitarian-agencies-consider-gaza-toll-reliable-2023-10-27/ https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2023/10/24/gaza-death-toll-palestinian-health-ministry/
