The US House of Representatives voted Thursday to pass an amendment barring the US State Department from citing the Hamas-run Gaza Health Ministry’s death toll statistics for the Israel-Hamas war. A bipartisan group of lawmakers voted 269-144, passing the amendment to the State Department’s annual appropriation bill. The Gaza Health Ministry’s death toll during the current conflict has served as a primary source for understanding the impact the war has had on Palestinians in the territory. This is the only official entity tracking death data in Gaza. The Israeli government has repeatedly criticized the ministry’s death toll, claiming the agency is inflating the figure for political reasons.
