  • What I think should be changed:

In the info-box:

300 Palestinian civilians killed

+

Per Civil Defence: About 300 Palestinian killed

416+ Palestinian civilians injured

+

Per Gaza Government Media Office: 416+ Palestinian injured

200 Palestinian civilians missing

+

Per Civil Defence: 200 Palestinian missing

190,000+ Palestinian civilians displaced

+

190,000+ Palestinian displaced

Combine references 14 and 15.

  • Why it should be changed:

The sources used for these claims do not state that these figures are for civilians, but rather that they are for Palestinians. Additionally, except for the displaced figure, these numbers are attributed to "Civil Defense" and the "Gaza Government Media Office" and are not claimed by the articles themselves.

Regarding references 14 and 15, they both reference the same page, so we should probably remove "15" and use "14" instead.

  • References supporting the possible change:

Killed - Article 12.

Injured - Article 13.

Missing and displaced - Articles 14+15.
