Fighting Imperialism!!! Claims that the UN have revised down its death toll are absolutely untrue but have been repeated by right wing outlets but also the CFR 🤔

2/ These media are focusing on these two infographics by the @ochaopt . The one on the left, published 6th May, the one on the right published 8th May. As you can see, total fatalities INCREASE, as opposed to decrease. What the propaganda is seaking to do is barely sophistry pic.twitter.com/yy4fzcPZ9N

4/ Even in the summary notes on both days it is quite clear the total fatalities has increased. It's not revised the number downwards, and has not stated that of the 10000 missing or buried under the rubble have magically changed sex or age. pic.twitter.com/cadGHGo5VD

7/ And of course "fact checking" sites like "honest reporting" are trying to add a veneer of fact checking authenticity to the disinformation. Honest reporting have previously spread fake news about Reuters and AP journalists participating in Oct 7th - endangering journalists. pic.twitter.com/v4isjywTmp
