Disturbing to whom?
The UN acknowledged those numbers are bogus.
I predicted last week that many people would continue to use the old numbers because they have no interest in facts.

Disturbing to whom?
To the person with the obsession.
Their life is not functioning normally and it has been disturbed.
The obsession this person displays is not normal behavior.
He doesn't function normally and is therefore disturbed.
And yeah ... my degree is in psychology.
He can't be diagnosed long distance online.
But what I just said is obvious to everyone.
I think unhinged, delusional and deranged fit good. They’re obviously mentally ill or…. paid to be a constant pia, take your pick but they’ll be back today guaranteed. Heck the poster above you, yet to be banned is the same person. Where do you think all their stars come from? You can watch them pop in n out of their account to star their own post or whoever is stupid enough to agree with them. It doesn’t take a brain surgeon to figure this out.

Has that poster professed being disturbed; otherwise, your opinion that they cant be diagnosed long distance makes your diagnosis an opinion.

The United Nations seemingly halved the estimated number of women and children killed in Gaza, according to UN data published on May 6 and 8. The UN published the number of fatalities reported by the Hamas-run Gaza Ministry of Health or the Government Media Office in Gaza and Israeli authorities. The UN provided a disclaimer below the data: "The UN has so far not been able to produce independent, comprehensive, and verified casualty figures."
On May 6, the UN published data showing that 34,735 people had reportedly been killed in Gaza, including over 9,500 women and over 14,500 children. On May 8, the UN published data showing 34,844 people had reportedly been killed, including 4,959 women and 7,797 children.
The new figures showed the number of identified deaths as of April 30, which total 24,686 people; the new data also specified that 10,006 men had been killed and 1,924 elderly.
The Israel Defense Forces said Monday that troops have killed some 12,000 of Hamas’s estimated 30,000 gunmen in the Gaza Strip since war erupted on October 7, after a Qatar-based official for the terror group claimed it had lost half that number — some 6,000 fighters — during the four-month-old conflict.
Hamas is also believed to have thousands of operatives who are seriously wounded and unable to fight.
The Hamas-run health agency has systematically overestimated the number of women and children killed in Gaza, according to an Associated Press analysis of the agency's fatality reports.
The AP's Friday report shows the Gaza Health Ministry persistently overestimated the death toll, providing inaccurate daily counts. Most daily death tolls released by the Gaza Health Ministry, the report says, were "provided without supporting data."
"As Gaza’s hospital system collapsed in December and January, the ministry began relying on hard-to-verify ‘media reports’ to register new deaths," the AP reported. "Its March report included 531 individuals who were counted twice, and many deaths were self-reported by families, instead of health officials."
In February, the Hamas-run ministry said 75 percent of fatalities were women and children, "a level that was never confirmed in the detailed reports" it released, according to the AP. The Gaza Health Ministry's overcounting reportedly persisted in March, when it inaccurately claimed 72 percent of the dead were women and children.
In reality, the AP found, roughly 54 percent of fatalities in Gaza by the end of March were women and children.
JERUSALEM (AP) — The proportion of Palestinian women and children being killed in the Israel-Hamas war appears to have declined sharply, an Associated Press analysis of Gaza Health Ministry data has found, a trend that both coincides with Israel’s changing battlefield tactics and contradicts the ministry’s own public statements.
The trend is significant because the death rate for women and children is the best available proxy for civilian casualties in one of the 21st century’s most destructive conflicts. In October, when the war began, it was above 60%. For the month of April, it was below 40%. Yet the shift went unnoticed for months by the U.N. and much of the media, and the Hamas-linked Health Ministry has made no effort to set the record straight.

Men listed as women to inflate female fatalities. Analysis of Gaza Ministry of Health (MoH) fatality data reveals repeated instances of men being misclassified as women. Examples include individuals with male first names (e.g. Mohammed) being recorded as female. This misclassification contributes to the narrative that civilian populations, particularly women and children, bear the brunt of the conflict, potentially influencing international sentiment and media coverage.
Adults registered as children. Significant discrepancies have been uncovered where adult fatalities are reclassified as children. For instance, an individual aged 22 was listed as a fouryear-old and a 31-year-old was listed as an infant. Such distortions inflate the number of child casualties, which is emotionally impactful and heavily emphasised in global reporting. These misrepresentations suggest a deliberate attempt to frame the conflict as disproportionately affecting children, undermining the credibility of the fatality data.
Disproportionate deaths of fighting-age men. Data analysis indicates that most fatalities are men aged 15–45, contradicting claims that civilian populations are being disproportionately targeted. This age demographic aligns closely with the expected profile of combatants, further supported by spikes in deaths of men reported by family sources rather than hospitals. This evidence suggests that many fatalities classified as civilian may be combatants, a distinction omitted from official reporting.
