Hamas says it has launched a rocket attack towards the Tel Aviv area in central Israel for the first time in nearly four months. At least eight rockets were launched from the Rafah area in southern Gaza and several were intercepted, the Israeli military says. No injuries have been reported.

    Anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state has to support bolstering Hamas and transferring money to Hamas. This is part of our strategy — to isolate the Palestinians in Gaza from the Palestinians in the West Bank.

          The news says no. The target was a tent refugee camp.

          At least 40 civilians dead (men, women and children).

          The wounded are in the hundreds.

            That link is broken. But here’s one.

            Israel’s military, which is trying to eliminate Hamas in Gaza, said it was investigating reports that a strike it carried out against commanders of the Islamist militant group in Rafah had caused the fire.

            If Hamas is camping amongst citizens, expect this to happen again.

              Fixed the link.

              I already expect that the IDF will exterminate as much civilians as it can. After 14000 palestinian children killed what else can we expect?

                I brought Reuters and you brought… whatever that site is.

                Arguing this stuff on Lemmy reminds me of arguing with right-wingers on Facebook back when I had one - y’all post the most obscure sources.

                And the children thing comes up too instead of acknowledging the fact that Hamas actively uses human shields by camping with civilians.

                So, again, if they’re going to camp with civilians, expect this to happen again.

                  I’m Italian and that’s one of our main national newspapers, you ass

                  P.S. human shields against rockets? Yeah… Nice narrative. When do the fairies start to come out and dance the genocide away?

                    Hamas knows countries following the Geneva convention are more careful with noncombatants nearby.

                    That affords them some level of protection and you’re demonstrating exactly how with the genocide comment, besides Israel actually being more careful.

                    Hamas actively tries to get citizens killed to get people like you to say those things and lobby their governments to stop attacking them.

                    Weird way to conduct a genocide - warn everyone to evacuate an area before attacking your target.

                  God forbid there is a news reality that is not in English anywhere in the world. This is why russia is focusing its propaganda efforts in South America and India, because it knows Anglosphere hubris will lead them to ignore non-English media bubbles, but they are very much there, that’s how a dipshit like Órban wins elections.

                  PS: sorry about the rant, it’s not directed at you in particular :/

                    I have no issue with the non English part. We don’t have a monopoly on truth.

                    I just don’t know how I’m supposed to keep track of all these news sites to know which are to be taken seriously and which can be dismissed.

                    Before they replied how am I supposed to know if they’re a Reuters or InfoWars? It takes too much bandwidth.

      It’s almost like Hamas is a puppet for Israel, designed to keep giving Israel an excuse to continue their genocide.

      Western imperialism and having insurgency groups used for divide and conquer tactics grow out of control and backfire. Name a better combo
