Original Note:
Misleading: This statistic refers only to the 8,119 deaths verified by UN, not to the totality of deaths in Gaza. https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/nearly-70-gaza-war-dead-women-children-un-rights-office-says-2024-11-08/#:~:text=with%20children%20aged%205%20to%209%20representing%20the%20single%20biggest%20age%20category And the UN themselves admit that their analysis focused primarily on mass-casualty events in residential buildings, hence their sample is not representative. https://www.ohchr.org/sites/default/files/documents/countries/opt/20241106-Gaza-Update-Report-OPT.pdf https://x.com/MarkZlochin/status/1854981312366379519
