Israel has continued bombarding Gaza’s south despite telling 1.1 million people in the north of the besieged enclave to relocate there ahead of an expected ground offensive.

“We were displaced from Tal al-Hawa to Rafah at the request of the Israeli army, and this is what happened to us. My son is a 3-month-old martyr,” the father of a child killed in an attack in Rafah told Al Jazeera.

I mean you're right of course, buy even if they'd doubled the number... would 2500 deaths be ok?

Nope. None of this is acceptable. At the same time, I don't like people just passing on figures from Hamas that are questionable at best. Facts matter.
