Gaza's death toll now exceeds 30,000. Here's why it's an incomplete count

Palestinians pray over bodies of people killed in an Israeli bombardment, brought from the Shifa hospital, before burying them in a mass grave in the town of Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip, Nov. 22.

Gaza's health ministry announced Thursday that 30,035 Palestinians have been killed in the war. A close look at how the ministry counts those killed reveals a system buckling under the weight of war.
