Deep Dive: Israel claims the number of people killed in Gaza – the steadily rising and horrific number we hear on the news just about every day – is inflated.
Others say true number of people killed is far more than what’s being reported.
On this episode of the Briefing, Bension Siebert speaks with Professor Michael Spagat, chair of Every Casualty Counts, who explains how deaths in Gaza and other active warzones are verified.
He makes a passionate case for acknowledging the individual humanity of everyone who dies in war, rather than thinking of them as a number on a page.
