× It sounded fishy to me, but the number of the victims are so big that I cannot deny it strongly.
✓ It sounded fishy to me, but the number of the victims is so big that I cannot deny it strongly.

I understood your meaning clearly. You misspelled "tourist".

The placement of "in the tourist spot" was a little awkward. "than they had intended in the tourist spot" sounds like the "intending" is what was in the tourist spot, rather than "the temple" or the "donations".

For "the number of victims are so big", remember that it is the "number" which is "big", not the "victims", so you must use the singular "is" instead of the plural "are".

The person asking this is asking for validation, they may question if it is true or not so they want a second source of information.

A reply would be “Yeah, that’s correct”
Or “I actually heard that it isn’t safe”

A: I would say, "I'm browsing Facebook." "I'm browsing on my phone."

I think I'd use "on my" when mentioning the phone because it's the tool you use to browse, as in "I'm browsing on my phone" or ""I'm browsing the internet on my laptop."

With a proper noun, like the name of a social media, to me, it sounds best to just name it without any articles or prepositions, as in "I'm browsing Facebook" or "I'm browsing YouTube."

When using a regular noun, like "internet", it seems best to use "the," as in "I'm browsing the internet" or "I'm browsing the library."
