Original Note:
The UN did not walk back its reported Gaza death toll by “half.” While the updates released on May 8, 2024 show lowered women and children death counts, the total overall deaths increased slightly. Per the UN, it continues to use unverifiable info in its estimates. https://www.ochaopt.org/content/hostilities-gaza-strip-and-israel-reported-impact-day-213 https://www.ochaopt.org/content/hostilities-gaza-strip-and-israel-reported-impact-day-215 https://m.jpost.com/israel-hamas-war/article-800772 https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/un-spokesman-defends-reduction-of-gaza-death-toll-figures-can-vary-based-on-hamas-verification-process/
