Original Note:
The Lancet article clearly states that the 186,000 deaths estimate is based on a *conservative* calculation, and data from recent wars. Trying to underplay this does not provide useful context, abuses community notes, and has the effect of dehumanizing Palestinians. https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(24)01169-3/fulltext
