Are you stupid? If the article lists that the number is 48k, and you can find online that the only party that claims 48k is the Gaza Health Ministry, where do you imagine they got the numbers from? Expain how anyone is misdirecting you if the quoted numbers match exactly with what the Gaza Health Ministry claims?
The Guardian article did not explicitly list a source in that article. But it takes a 2 minute search to find that the only matching source has to be the GHM.
The Guardian: "The number of deaths is approximately 48k."
The GHM: "The number of deaths is approximately 48k."
You, for some reason: "Aha, proof the Guardian isn't citing the GHM number of 48k when they say it's 48k!"
???
At this point you almost certainly have to be trolling to make pro-Palestinians look stupid or something. Thankfully most others I've engaged with here seem to be better understanding.
And does the article actually name a different number than the Gaza Health Ministry does? Yes or no?
I literally quoted it for you. Here, I'll do it again:
At this point I'm just going to block you because you can't read.
