Original Note:
The Gaza Health Ministry puts the death count in Gaza since October of last year at under 42,000. https://www.forbes.com/sites/saradorn/2024/10/06/why-the-israel-hamas-war-death-toll-is-uncertain-1-year-after-start-of-war/# Further, comparisons of death counts are irrelevant in defining genocide, and are not mentioned in the UN Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide. https://www.un.org/en/genocideprevention/documents/atrocity-crimes/Doc.1_Convention%20on%20the%20Prevention%20and%20Punishment%20of%20the%20Crime%20of%20Genocide.pdf
