At least 11 people, including children, have been killed in an Israeli attack on the Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza, it has been reported.
The Palestinian Wafa news agency reported that the strike hit a playground frequently visited by displaced children.
Most of those killed were children, the news agency reported with several people also wounded in the attack
One eyewitness described the situation as a “horrific scene of children torn apart”.
The latest data from Unicef said that one child in Gaza is killed or injured every 10 minutes and further said that at least 70 children are injured every day during the Israeli bombardment.
IDF discovering a secret Hamas tunnel network
It’s clearly designed to launch rockets and hide a cache of weapons… /s
Why would Israel stop? They don’t give a shit and no one is doing more than frowning at them in response.
Can’t believe THIS is something I find topical and in need of posting over and over:

Unfortunately we the people keep promoting the most narcissistic, sociopathic people to “leadership” positions. This is in all nations and the consequences of this are all over the place throughout all history yet few are talking about it.
Narcissistic sociopaths are exactly the sort of people who seek out power
Don’t worry the US will “look into it” and express “concern” before repeating how ironclad their support for Israel is.
Biden is creating lots of blue-collar jobs at the crocodile-tear factory.
Joe Biden was overheard rehearsing into his mirror that he was upset with Bibi.
He really needs to get over the habit of giving a wink and a nod at the end of his “expression of concern”.

Thanks for reporting, everyone!
It blows my mind that there are people on here that are cool with doing an airstrike on a playground full of orphans. Many (most?) of which already had to witness the same happening to their parents.
I’m sorry but there is zero justification for that. None. Your argument is invalid.
Yea, their argument boils down to “well Hamas so they deserve it, it’s their own fault”. Incredibly apathetic and cruel. Tbf people who think like that are also victims of something truly fucked up in their lives, but they are wrong and Israel is wrong to do this. Full stop.
- Every Palestinian is Hamas.
- Every hole in the ground is a Hamas Tunnel.
- Every critic of Israel is pro-Hamas.
Those 3 sentences are the entire foundation of Israeli Propaganda.
There is not a single “argument” maybe by the Israeli Government, the IDF, hasbara astroturfers or genocide-excusing useful idiots that doesn’t relly on at least one of those, especially the first.
I’ve never met a good guy that blows up children.

Man, fuck international law, it goes against the religious beliefs held by many committing these atrocities. I’m not religious at all, but if your god is happy you bombed a fucking playground of children, then fuck your god.
Side note, I agree with you and this was not directed negatively to the previously reply. “Your” was used generally, not specifically. I hate this world sometimes, is all.
They all have the same god bud. Islam, Judaism and Christ based religions are all religions of Abraham.
I know. That’s why I didn’t specify any specific deity and left it lower-case. They’re all the same never-ending grift.

idk if international law applies. Israel and Palestine are the same country.

The way things sit currently, “Palestine” is more like a large native american reservation than a country, maybe a reservation in 1885 when they were still actively, occasionally, fighting the government and the army would come by sometimes and kill a bunch.
It’s incredible that leaders like Biden can still back Israel after actions like this.
Money speaks louder than children can scream
The United States cannot turn its back on its allies so easily. It takes decades to build strong alliances.
What a horrific example of the sunk cost fallacy.
I don’t think this is a purely economic equation
So it’s not a good example? What does it say to other allies when we drop one? Israel was attacked. We should stand by them. Certainly I am not supportive of what is happening in Gaza. I blame Bibi, not Biden.
What does it say to other allies when we drop one?
Probably something like “bombing children is bad” or “don’t commit genocide”
A country who bombs children without regard is no ally to a modern nation
Bibi may be the worst, but it’s not like other prime minister was good with Palestine
Israel is only a detriment to the US.
Supporting Israel the main reason for the 9/11 attacks, which cost the US trillions of dollars.
How long until we hear about Hamas tunnels under the playground, or a secret weapons cache hidden in the crawl tube?
Those aren’t swings those are kinematic ballistic launchers! Super high tech made to look like children swinging. Those tubes? Those aren’t slides. They’re nuclear missile silos! That sand… Yeah that’s just sand, but it’s HAMAS sand and it’s all Bidens fault for selling high grade military sand to Israel! GeNoCiDe JoE!
It was not a playground. It was training facilities for terrorists. Also it was cloudy so they maybe couldn’t see so clearly or mistook the children for hamas fighters. I am sure they have some heartfelt apologises to share and that they will investigate themselves and publish the results for full transparency
The real question is, when will the world have had enough of these lame excuses?
Aljazeera Arabic released a video showing some of the victims of this brutal israeli massacre on little children. Some injured some dead.
Footage starts at about 1:10 NSFL (light Gore + Death): Video link
Harrowing. Those poor children.
Fuck Israel. Fuck HAMAS.
Hamas had nothing to do with israel slaughtering these children.
Unless we take the IDF suggestion that all these kids were “Hamas operatives”.
I never said they did.
But they also slaughtered children.
I stand by my statements.
Hamas has a 3% child casualty rate on October 7 (including all israeli friendly fire)
Israel has a 40% child casualty rate since October 7
It would be great if the Hamas child casualty was even lower but one of these is clearly not like the other.
I in no way deny or defend the patently obvious genocide being committed by Israel.
But I refuse to ignore the slaughter committed by HAMAS.
Much like the IRA, a just cause does not justify any means. Omagh was wrong. The 7th of October was wrong. Murderes of innocents and children.
Acknowledgement of that didn’t lessen the murder and brutality of the UK or Israel. State sanctioned oppression, murder and genocide.
Both are wrong. Downvote away.
IRA was right,
Typical Boko Haram supporter.
What are you talking about did Hamas shoot up children last week?
Only tankies defend crimes against innocent civilians based on them being citizens of a stronger country
All civilians deserve protection
Crazy how people are defending Hamas. Yes, fuck both. Free the Palestinian people.
IDF is killing more civilians and children than Russia 😬
Let me guess…
“Hamas” in the playground?
*Hammas controlled playground.
Wouldn’t want someone to think you’re antisemitic would you?
Jewish Nazis doing what Jewish Nazis do best.

And Americans are ~40% german descendants, that’s why they are helping Israel perpetrate this genocide in every possible way!
See that? That is racism. It’s a pretty bad thing.
Makes sense, actually
The ancient Egyptians could’ve saved us from all of this…but no. They had one job. /S
So, here’s a question, what would be the appropriate Palestinian response to this?
Fight back by any means necessary.
Grief?
Not whatever Hamas is doing.
Palestine has a right to defend itself.
This is so fucking disgusting. There is no way the IDF doesn’t have precision munitions or know what they are targeting. Also, why the fuck even look to bomb a refugee camp? Why bomb a fucking playground inside a refugee camp? How can any civil person do that to children, regardless of their ethnicity? If the goal is to rid the area of Hamas, all they do is create more of them by doing this shit.
I’m sorry, I was willing to give the IDF the benefit of the doubt, but after other instances of a similar type, there is no doubt that this and other attacks on innocent children are deliberate. This was a playground. This was a refugee camp. These were children… Meanwhile, I’ll watch as many of the world’s governments shake their fists in the air at Israel, and do nothing more to stop any of this.
I’m gonna go hug my son while I mourn the world he is inheriting.
But we gotta put more sanctions on Iran, right?
Conservative Israeli’s: “Gottem!”
