The UN’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) stated on May 6 that over 9,500 women and 14,500 children had been killed in Gaza.

Two days later, OCHA officially listed under 5,000 women and 8,000 children as casualties.

The Hamas-run Government Media Office has previously served as the source for the UN’s casualty figures, according to the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies.

    That ratio is comparable to other embedded urban warfare. The UN estimates that 90% of casualties in modern wars have been civilians.

      Ok?

      Still too high, I said the same shit about Afghanistan.

      If you can’t do it without killing civilians, then you have just decided that human life is worthless to you.
