Politicians and the media routinely quote Hamas casualty figures, usually attributing them to the Gaza ‘Ministry of Health’ or some other nonsensical facade for the terrorist group. And so when Hamas claimed that there were now 50,000 dead in Gaza, the media eagerly repeatedly those numbers.
Along with claims of mass civilian casualties.
Current Hamas numbers however skew rather male.
Hamas quietly removed the names of thousands of Palestinians it had previously alleged were killed during the Israel-Hamas war, Salo Aizenberg, from the US-based non-profit organisation Honest Reporting told The Telegraph on Tuesday after analyzing Hamas’s March 2025 casualty update.
Hamas has previously claimed that 70% of casualties have been women and children, a claim no longer reflected in their recently updated lists, according to the research. Approximately 72% of fatalities between the ages of 13-55 are men – the demographic category aligns with Hamas combatants.
“Hamas’s new March 2025 fatality list quietly drops 3,400 fully ‘identified’ deaths listed in its August and October 2024 reports – including 1,080 children. These ‘deaths’ never happened. The numbers were falsified – again,” Aizenberg asserted.
That the numbers are fake was always obvious because it’s impossible to document casualties accurately at the speed at which Hamas claims to do so. The current numbers produce an inconvenient statistical result (which no mainstream media outlet pushing the genocide hoax will address) and will be revised yet again.
But a 72% male skew is far more credible on the battlefield than 70% women and children.
