Yes, they've cut the number of women and children by 50%. They were previously parroting a terrorist organizations talking points.
I'm not going to hold my breath. Waiting for news agencies to share this news. But all the people hand waving about women and children being targeted. Can rightfully shut the fuck up about it right now? Because even the UN who are quite clearly hand in glove with Hamas at this point can't backup the claims being made by the useful idiots on campus.
So cite where the deaths have been halfed because I already put in where it wasn't the case.
Oh cool you are denying Israel has been killing women and children
Where did I say they cut the number of deaths in half? I said they cut the number of children dead in half. Check the un stats on May 7th then check the un stats on May 12th. If you need help reading, ask your mom to step in..
So you don't have any sources.
And lack reading compression as it's only changed categories not totals

The source is literally the UN reporting itself. Look at May 6th. Look at May 8th. The UN is now saying that they don't have data to support The claims that are being made. That you are trying to twist this into anything other than what they're saying is just another example of the icj ruling where people ignorantly ran around claiming the ruled. It was plausibly a genocide. Even the president of the icj had to come out to correct the stupidity. This is exactly the same thing all over. Just like when Hamas bombed the hospital and everyone around saying it was Israel too. The ignorance being displayed by the people who desperately want to believe everything bad they hear about Israel is astonishing LMFAO.
So again not reading and only have insults and ignoring facts.

It seems one of us is aware of the facts and the other is not. The president of the panel that handed down the ruling is on record as saying opinions like the one that you're putting forward are incorrect. They did not rule there is a plausible genocide. She made that exceptionally clear.
That she even had to come out and correct the record because of people like you demonstrates just how deeply the propaganda has spread.
Not to mention the panel didn't intervene. If it was a genocide wouldn't they have done something? they intervened in Russia, Ukraine, It's absolutely within their purview to do so, yet they chose not to.
they need protection from genocide as we continue to review evidence
Yeah really great look for Israel. who continue to do the genocide
