Only 3, Not 40 Noncombatants Killed Near UN School -David Horovitz
The most emblematic distortion of the death toll in the Gaza war relates to the deaths near the UN school in Jabalya on Jan. 6. Palestinian medical officials claimed that some 40 Palestinians, many of them women and children, were killed at the school by IDF shells.
These claims sparked condemnation from the UN, widespread allegations against Israel and escalated international demands for an urgent end to the fighting.
The IDF's Gaza Coordination and Liaison Administration [now reports] that the Palestinian death toll in that incident - which involved Israel returning fire against Hamas gunmen outside the school facility - caused 12 fatalities, nine gunmen and three noncombatants.
