Between October 7 and December 15, approximately 18,800 Palestinians have died, 70% of whom were women and children. The death toll includes over 300 health sector workers, 86 journalists, 135 employees of the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East, and around 35 civil defense crews. In addition, more than 51,100 people have been reportedly wounded, with many others unaccounted for.

The report further states that out of 36 hospitals in the enclave, only eight are partially functional. Occupancy rates in inpatient departments have surged to 206%, while intensive care units are operating at a staggering 250% capacity.

I don't think those commenters really care, they're just looking for reassurance for their apathy. Denial will save them from inconvenience.

Dude, I am this 🤏 close to being banned in another community for daring to say that the current event is a genocide of palestinians.

I'm not denying anything, let alone for the sake of convenience. I'm not apathetic. All I'm saying is, is that the current numbers are probably not completely accurate.

I also explicitly said that the current estimate is probably not far off.
