Recent analysis by Salo Aizenberg of Honest Reporting reveals that Hamas has quietly removed over 3,400 names from its reported fatality list in the Israel-Hamas war, including 1,080 children previously claimed as killed — exposing significant manipulation of casualty figures.
• 72% of reported fatalities aged 13–55 are men, a demographic strongly associated with combatants, contradicting earlier Hamas claims that 70% were women and children.
• Analysts believe Hamas inflated numbers for propaganda, listing names without proper evidence.
• A separate report by the Henry Jackson Society supports these findings, calling Hamas’s casualty data unreliable and manipulated.
• Despite this, the UN and global media continue to cite Hamas’s figures, often without proper verification.
In short: Hamas has been caught falsifying casualty numbers to manipulate global perception.
