David Adesnik, director of research at the Washington-based Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD), told the National Post he suspects the discrepancy stems from the UN’s decision to quietly stop using figures provided by the Hamas-run Government Media Office (GMO).
“So you see May 6 and before, the GMO (is listed as a source); all of a sudden, May 8, they don’t cite a source,” Adesnik told the Post over the phone on Sunday. He pointed to the similarity between the new figures and those from a May 2 Gaza Health Ministry (GMH) report as a tip-off suggesting the UN had ditched the media office’s figures in favour of those from the health ministry, “even though they don’t say (the Gaza) Health Ministry in the thing.”

While more than 9,500 women and 14,500 children were reported among the fatalities by the UN’s Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) on May 6, two days later that number was revised significantly downward. Today, under 5,000 women and 8,000 children are now officially listed by the UN as casualties.
Not only did Hamas bloat the numbers they counted injuries the same as deaths.
I’ll be surprised if those new numbers don’t crater in time.
These terrorists bloat the numbers and the UN uses them to
develop policy against Israel, time after time after time.
It’s a running joke how the UN allows itself to be used by
terrorists. It’s essentially a partner with the terrorists
propagating false narratives for Israel to be hated over.
Genocidal Rapist murderers are also liars?
Shocking.
So we can assume the remainder of the 34,000 killed in Gaza are Hamas terrorists? Sounds good to me.
Hamas has ALWAYS LIED! But look what the UN does for them:
