Since October 7, more than 3,257 children have been reported killed, including at least 3,195 in Gaza, 33 in the West Bank, and 29 in Israel, according to the Ministries of Health in Gaza and Israel respectively. The number of children reported killed in just three weeks in Gaza is more than the number killed in armed conflict globally – across more than 20 countries – over the course of a whole year, for the last three years.

Wow not a single mention of the infants and children being held hostage in Gaza. Apparently they only care about saving some of the children

Dude if you're triggered by them just 'counting' their dead, there's something wrong with you.

Are you triggered by my comment where I was not triggered, just pointing out biased reporting?

This is an article about children who are dead, not those still alive.

Also shady that the number dead in Gaza comes from “The Ministry of Health in Gaza” aka Hamas controlled data.

Who should it come from?

No one.

They just don't want to hear about it because it challenges their worldview. If this came from a source outside of Gaza, they'd criticize it for not being first hand information. And of course anything that comes from inside Gaza is hand waved as Hamas controlled. They've created a system that allows them to selectively write off any source that challenges them with the wave of a hand.

Thank you for describing what I've wanted to say for days. There really is an effort online to dismiss anything that's happening inside Gaza.

Maybe ALLOW other people in? It's almost like Israel has closed all borders and is actively killing journalists, oh wait, blackout etc... Oh wait, they DID?

Until they do, you have no other option than to believe them. Why not? Because it serves you to think that way and push people online to automatically dismiss and disbelieve everything that's happening right now.

I could also start making the case that I don't believe Israel lost so 1400 people, just to annoy you. But I won't, because they died and the least I can do is acknowledge that.

You know Palestine isn't some hidden shadowy back woods no one can see? There are aids groups there, Doctors Without Borders, journalists, other experts. They don't have a magical authoritarian lock on information. You can see the bodies.

They published the ID numbers of those who they claim are dead. It will be possible to prove/disprove it in time. It's not like they are throwing out a number without any backing.
