Hamas has removed more than 3,400 previously reported deaths from its official casualty figures, including 1,080 alleged child fatalities, according to new research that asserts the numbers were knowingly falsified.
On Tuesday, The Telegraph reported that a March update from the Hamas-run Gaza Ministry of Health drastically revised down its earlier tallies of war dead. According to Honest Reporting’s Salo Aizenberg, the updated fatality list dropped thousands of names that had been publicly listed in PDFs released in August and October of 2024.
“These ‘deaths’ never happened,” he stated. “The numbers were falsified – again.”
Hamas’s Gaza Health Ministry has been routinely cited by global media and United Nations agencies as a primary source of Gaza war casualty figures since the Israel-Hamas conflict
