A more precise picture of Hamas's October 7 attack on Israel has emerged from social security data, confirming the unprecedented scale of the violence but also challenging some initial testimonies.
The exact number is only really relevant for historical purposes. Especially on this scale. At some point, a catastrophe like this really does become a statistic.
Large attacks like these cannot go unpunished, so the response would’ve been the same no matter the figure. Heck, even if it was a hundred people killed, that’s not something Israel could or should ignore.
And certainly, between the chaos, trauma and condition of some of the bodies, it’s obviously going to take a while to pin down an exact figure anyway.

Exactly, and they’re doing a fantastic job of punishing the children of Gaza, keep up the good work Israel! Soon there won’t be any children left.
Wow, a sane take!? I’m surprised that this popped up between all the anti-israel propaganda here on Lemmy.
