The UN has revised its estimates of women and children deaths in Gaza, highlighting discrepancies in the reported numbers. @gcaw investigates the faulty numbers used by the UN, shedding light on the challenges of accurately tallying casualties in the ongoing conflict. @WashInstitute and @TheEconomist also discuss the disputed death tolls from Gaza, pointing to inconsistencies in reporting by Hamas and the need for reliable estimates.
Hamas statistics are inconsistent, imprecise, and systematically manipulated to downplay the number of men and militants killed. How do #Gaza authorities measure fatality numbers? @GabrielEpsteinX spoke with @robsatloff about their methodology. https://t.co/6dMKMwdY4A

How does @UNOCHA report #Gaza fatalities? @GabrielEpsteinX explains that a recent shift in the total number of women and children killed during the war points to deeper problems in the way the organization relays data and handles questionable sources. https://t.co/EvSEnANXNZ

The UN revised downward its estimates of how many women and children have died in Gaza—without explaining the discrepancies. Accurate numbers matter, @gcaw writes. “The fog of statistics could be dispersed with just a few sentences of straight talk.” https://t.co/vSMeowRQDm https://t.co/wGbBtjxJ6B
