Verification

Confirmed: 7 independent sources.

Verification describes the available evidence, not certainty that an event occurred.

Independent origins agree and an official record, a neutral body or an admission against interest backs it. That is strong evidence, not certainty; it can still change.

Sources disagree on:

• The Gaza Health Ministry (via ABC News), Gaza civil defense (via The Detroit News) and France 24 say six were killed, while WAFA (via Arab News and Middle East Eye), Drop Site News and Hadashot Habezek say one was killed.

What we know and what remains unclear

Each detail the reports give, by how many independent origins reported it. An origin is the outlet or channel where a claim first appeared; reposts count once. Confidence in the event is not confidence in each detail. This counts reports: it is not a measure of accuracy, and it does not change the event's status. "Reports differ" means two origins gave values that cannot both be true; it is about that detail, not about whether the incident happened.
