Israeli officials say the original death toll of 1,400 included unidentified corpses now believed to be Hamas fighters.

“This is the updated number,” Haiat told AFP. “It is due to the fact that there were a lot of corpses that were not identified and now we think those belong to terrorists … not Israeli casualties.”

    Has nothing to do with Israel's continued effort to hide the fact that lots of dead Israelis were killed by the IDF bombing even their own people indiscriminately

    I wonder how parents of missing israeli children feel about this govt missive?

    There were a lot of corpses too mutilated to identify not identified and we have no interest in seperating the viscera and it would just be easier if we said we think they belong to terrorists...

    Seems expensive, so do they still buy into the prop when their kids are dead? Does the price ever seem high to them?
