Elder of ZiyonUN “experts” are willing to endorse even the most outlandish, unsourced claims in the service of slandering Israel – sometimes going further than even Hamas’ own propaganda.
The "experts," in their zeal to demonize the Jewish state, claim:
The group of experts cited over 52,535 deaths, of which 70 percent continue to be women and children, and 118,491 injuries as of 4 May 2025.
The last time the Gaza health ministry gave detailed statistics, it counted 50% women and children, not 70%. even that number is highly suspect given that the ministry has removed thousands of names from its own official lists without adjusting the total numbers of those killed. The only source for 70% - since the beginning of the war - has been Hamas' government media office, which makes up these numbers out of thin air.
The UN "experts" have knowingly published the false 70% figure before. Even though it has been debunked, they cannot help themselves.
But in this latest letter, they go even beyond Hamas' own propaganda.
"Since breaking the ceasefire, Israel has killed hundreds of Palestinians, many daily - peaking on 18 March 2025 with 600 casualties in 24 hours, 400 of whom were children. This is one of the most ostentatious and merciless manifestations of the desecration of human life and dignity,” the experts said.
Israel killed 600 people on March 18 - of whom 400 were children? How did the media miss this story?
According to the Gaza health ministry, between March 18 morning and noon on March 19. there were 436 deaths, of which 183 were allegedly children.

Again, these numbers are highly suspect - but this is a far cry from 400 children killed in one day. It would be difficult for Israel to deliberately kill that many children even if it wanted to.
Where did these "experts" get these bizarre numbers from? As far as I can tell, they made them up. I cannot find anyone - media, Hamas, random social media posters - who made this claim of 400 children dead out of 600 total in one day.
The "experts" who put their names on these clearly fictional statistics include:
Francesca Albanese, Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights in the Palestinian territories occupied since 1967; George Katrougalos, Independent Expert on the promotion of a democratic and equitable international order; Gehad Madi, Special Rapporteur on the human rights of migrants; Gina Romero, Special Rapporteur on the Rights to Freedom of Peaceful Assembly and of Association; Tlaleng Mofokeng, Special Rapporteur on the right of everyone to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of physical and mental health; Astrid Puentes Riaño, Special Rapporteur on the human right to a clean, healthy and sustainable environment ; Paula Gaviria Betancur, Special Rapporteur on the human rights of internally displaced persons; Tomoya Obokata, Special Rapporteur on contemporary forms of slavery, including its causes and consequences Nicolas Levrat, Special Rapporteur on minority issues; Farida Shaheed, Special Rapporteur on the right to education; Ashwini K.P. Special Rapporteur on contemporary forms of racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance; Heba Hagrass, Special Rapporteur on the rights of persons with disabilities; Pedro Arrojo-Agudo, Special Rapporteur on the human rights to safe drinking water and sanitation; Graeme Reid, Independent Expert on protection against violence and discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity; Balakrishnan Rajagopal, Special Rapporteur on the right to adequate housing; Michael Fakhri, Special Rapporteur on the Right to Food; Mary Lawlor, Special Rapporteur on the situation of human rights defenders: Olivier De Schutter, Special Rapporteur on extreme poverty and human rights; Morris Tidball-Binz, Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions; Siobhán Mullally, Special Rapporteur on trafficking in persons, especially women and children; Jovana Jezdimirovic Ranito (Chair-Rapporteur), Ravindran Daniel, Michelle Small, Joana de Deus Pereira, Andrés Macías Tolosa, Working Group on the use of mercenaries; and Geneviève Savigny (Chair-Rapporteur), Carlos Duarte, Uche Ewelukwa, Shalmali Guttal, Davit Hakobyan, Working Group on the rights of peasants and other people working in rural areas and Bina D’Costa (Chair), Barbara G. Reynolds, Isabelle Mamadou, Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent, Laura Nyirinkindi (Chair), Claudia Flores (Vice-Chair), Dorothy Estrada Tanck, Ivana Krstić, and Haina Lu, Working group on discrimination against women and girls.
This list of UN "experts" who happily sign anything anti-Israel without even a pretense of fact-checking completely discredits the UN as being a source for anything related to Israel.
The lies get worse, though. The BMJ (British Medical Journal) seems to have taken this press release as source material for its own article and uncritically quoted the bogus "400 children in one day" statistic:
This is a supposedly prestigious medical journal that uncritically parrots lies that have no source whatsoever.
When it comes to anti-Israel propaganda, the experts agree - facts are strictly optional.
