How Warconomy uses this source

An independent policy-analysis assessment (as of roughly May 2025) offering a demographically-adjusted estimate range for total Gaza deaths, distinct in method from the Ministry of Health's direct identified-casualty count. Cited here only as a competing estimate alongside the MoH/OCHA figure, not averaged with it — the two measure different things (a direct count vs. a modeled adjustment for undercounting).

Why

  • authoritative research source
  • deep link to the specific page/series
  • manually reviewed

Limitations

  • manually maintained static value, not real-time
  • research estimate; methodology varies
  • irregular/policy cadence; re-verify against the source

Citation readiness is a derived label from the source’s authority, role, and how directly it backs a maintained value — not a correctness claim.
