Gaza's self reported casualty numbers have been found to be reliable by multiple organizations. https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/nothing-wrong-with-gaza-death-toll-figures-who-says-2024-05-14/ However, a paper in The Lancet found that if the conflict ended today the total of Gazan deaths is likely to exceed 186,000 because of the destruction of medical infrastructure https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(24)01169-3/fulltext
