Original Note:
The Hamas-controlled Health Ministry doesn’t distinguish between killed combatants and civilians, presenting them all as civilians. People that were killed due to Hamas misfires are also counted as IDF resulted deaths. Hamas operates in civilian clothing. https://apnews.com/article/israel-hamas-war-gaza-health-ministry-health-death-toll-59470820308b31f1faf73c703400b033 https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2023/10/19/hamas-unwittingly-admits-gaza-rockets-are-prone-to-misfire/ https://newlinesmag.com/spotlight/israeli-uniforms-hamas-tracksuits-and-a-war-of-symbols/ https://www.memri.org/reports/hamas-interior-ministry-social-media-activists-always-call-dead-innocent-civilians-dont-post
