Hamas claims precise knowledge of civilian deaths in Gaza while admitting it cannot determine how many of its own terrorists have been killed.
In an English-language television interview, senior Hamas official Ghazi Hamad confidently cited the number of civilians allegedly killed by Israel in Gaza.
But when the journalist asked how many Hamas fighters had been killed, Hamad suddenly claimed that reliable figures were impossible to obtain because Hamas could not investigate the deaths.
The exchange exposes a central contradiction in Hamas propaganda: the terrorist organization presents civilian casualty figures as immediate and unquestionable, yet insists that identifying dead Hamas operatives is impossible under the same battlefield conditions.
