The London mayor cited Hamas figures on the Gaza death count and claimed the deaths were "betrayals of humanity."​

London Mayor Sadiq Khan shared “Hamas propaganda” in his Ramadan statement, the Israeli embassy in London and ambassador accused on Thursday

Khan claimed in a video on Sunday that Israel has killed “more than 50,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza as a result of Israel’s ongoing military campaign, including more than 15,000 children.”

The statistics provided appear to be based on disputed figures published by the Hamas-run Gaza health ministry.


Hamas acknowledged earlier this week, in contrast to previous figured provided, that around 60% of the casualties in the war have been fighting-aged men, US-based non-profit organisation Honest Reporting told The Telegraph based on an analysis of Hamas’s March 2025 casualty update.

The terror group also does not distinguish in its figures the deaths of combatants.

“These betrayals of humanity should weigh heavily on our collective conscience. But I’m proud that, while the international community has chosen to avert its gaze, Londoners have not,” the mayor said.


Khan’s comments drew criticism from Israeli ambassador Tzipi Hotovely, who wrote on X/Twitter: “I was extremely disturbed listening to @SadiqKhan’s remarks in a video he released at the start of Eid celebrations. His comments on the casualties from the ongoing war in Israel as ‘betrayals of humanity’ seem a shocking misrepresentation.
 
I dunno why they keep using the 50 k death count.
Those who died due to lack of medication/ food/ water if included will quadruple that. At least 200k dead already. 10% of gazans.
