Israeli strike hits Rafah area after Hamas barrage

Dozens of people have been killed or injured in a blast at a refugee camp in the Rafah area, the Hamas-run health ministry in Gaza has said.

The rocket barrage highlights the threat Hamas still poses to people across Israel, although there were no reports of injuries.

No reports of injuries in Israel and dozens of Palestinians injured or dead in Rafah, but Hamas is still the 'big threat'.

Really getting sick of this bs reporting.

It’s because they are desperately trying to frame this as Israel responding to a terrorist attack rather than Israel openly defying the International court of justice order to stop bombing civilians.

Israel is openly committing genocide while actively trying to frame this as defense of their borders, which could have worked as a strategy had not everything they have stated and said been proven absolute lies, to the point where they got their feelings hurt and had to openly assasinate journalists so that what they say can no longer be shown to be lies.

They are trying to discredit the casualities numbers by saying it's coming from hamas run health ministry while the world health organization said that there is no reason to doubt the numbers

What I have heard is that Palestinians are incredibly good at taking notes / data and statistics. They have record keepers in the hospitals whose entire jobs are counting the casualties and dead. That's where the numbers that are exact to a single casualty come from.

Why are they firing rockets?

People invaded their country and killed their families.

Are you talking about Hamas or Israel? I thought they were firing rockets because they didn’t want to give up their hostages

Netanyahu paid a leader of Hamas who convinced some ignorant hate filled Palestinians to do it to justify shooting bombs at defenseless women and children in a refugee camp

Not sure why the BBZ feels the need to mention the rocket strike launched elsewhere in Rafah. Must hope their readers are stupid enough to believe Rafah the place with >1 million refugees is just a small tent camp.

They are calling it a precision attack, precision intelligence, and also a mistake that will be investigated. Seems like a precision mistake to me

The Israeli military said it struck a Hamas compound with "precise ammunition and on the basis of precise intelligence

The Israeli military said

Stopped reading after that

I was just sharing their statesmen of it being a precision attack and precise intelligence, and then Bibi changing it to be a tragic mistake

You're right it was a precision mistake.

The most moral but least capable army in the world had struck again.
