As we've noted, between November and May, Hamas regularly reported - and the UN regularly repeated - 7,000 missing people under the rubble in Gaza. Then, sddenly, on May 3, that number jumped to 10,000 people missing.
Does anyone have the names of these missing people? Do we know what methodology was used to estimate their numbers?
Of course not. Because Hamas made them all up. And that's good enough for the UN.
Right now, the number of supposedly missing people has remained steady at exactly 10,000 for four months. The UN keeps publishing that number, crediting the Gaza Government Media Office, which is Hamas.
So not one person has been discovered under the rubble since May? Or maybe some have been discovered, but are equaled out with the number newly buried?
The number is fiction, like all of Hamas numbers. But NGOs and the UN need to publish the highest, most absurd numbers because that gives the sense of urgency that they demand for their anti-Israel political purposes.
