Partial UN probe of Gaza war dead over 6 months shows 'nearly 70%' women, children

The U.N. condemned on Friday the staggering number of civilians killed in Israel's war in Gaza, saying women and children comprised nearly 70 percent of the thousands of fatalities it had managed to verify.

The United Nations rights office said it had verified 8,119 of the more than 34,500 people reportedly killed during the first six months of the war, finding "close to 70 percent to be children and women."
