I will wait for at least a month after the war ends to try and get more reliable data. I reserve the right to extend the resolve date until reliable data is available.

"In recent conflicts, such indirect deaths range from three to 15 times the number of direct deaths. Applying a conservative estimate of four indirect deaths per one direct death9 to the 37 396 deaths reported, it is not implausible to estimate that up to 186 000 or even more deaths could be attributable to the current conflict in Gaza."

@JamesF Could you specify whether 'death toll' for this market includes everyone dying as the result of the war?

One month after a formal ceasefire and withdrawal is nowhere near long enough to begin to actually assess the carnage and destruction. Gaza has been quite literally leveled. People are dead in unmarked graves, under rubble, in hospitals, in Israeli prisons, in mass graves, and on the streets. Others have been taken hostage, fled, or even kidnapped. I would hope you extend the resolution date considerably account for all this.

OCHA says it could take three years to retrieve the estimated 10,000 bodies buried under rubble.

This is 3 times the number of estimated Hamas fighters at the beginning of the war...

Civilians count.

Yea, just giving proportion to the number.
