New study shows: Gazan civilian death toll deliberately exaggerated to vilify Israel
Arutz Sheva ^ | 15/12/24
The number of civilians reported killed in the Gaza conflict has been exaggerated to depict Israel as deliberately targeting innocent people, according to a new report cited by The Telegraph on Saturday.
Researchers say the Gaza ministry of health inflated casualty figures by including natural deaths, failing to distinguish between civilian and combatant casualties, and over-reporting fatalities among women and children.
According to the study by the Henry Jackson Society think tank, these figures have been manipulated by Hamas-run authorities in Gaza for propaganda purposes, with international media often repeating the claims without scrutiny.
The report highlights that, based on Israeli and US military and intelligence assessments, around 17,000 of those killed were Hamas terrorists—a fact it says has been largely overlooked in media coverage.
Its findings state: “The ministry of health, operating under Hamas, has systematically inflated the death toll by failing to distinguish between civilian and combatant deaths, over-reporting fatalities among women and children and even including individuals who died before the conflict began. This has led to a narrative where the Israel Defense Forces are portrayed as disproportionately targeting civilians, while the actual numbers suggest a significant proportion of the dead are combatants.”
Critics of Israel argue that even after correcting for anomalies, tens of thousands of innocent civilians have still been killed in Gaza. Simple math shows the number is closer to ten thousand, and that Israel warned Gazans to leave terrorist areas it was targetting, but Hamas often prevented them from doing so.
The report uncovered numerous statistical discrepancies, including approximately 5,000 natural deaths being added to casualty lists, such as cancer patients who were later found listed among those still receiving hospital treatment. Other errors, some of which were subsequently corrected, involved misclassifications of adults as children and men as women...
