Classified Israeli intel: 83% of Gaza dead reportedly civilians | DW News

A UN-backed global hunger monitor has declared a famine in Gaza City, warning that half-a-million people are living in catastrophic conditions. The IPC crisis prevention group says a quarter of Gaza's population is facing starvation after 22 months of war. Conditions are expected to worsen, with the famine area likely to widen next month. Israel says the report is based on Hamas lies.
And an investigation by several media outlets cites figures from a classified Israeli military database showing that 83 percent of the people killed in the Gaza war were civilians. That's five out of six Palestinians killed by Israeli forces.
