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.

    Sure would be nice if people in that region stopped attacking civilians at every opportunity.

        TIL killing 1143 people in one day at one location is not “en masse”.

            All of the Gaza death toll numbers you see include Hamas in those numbers.

            There’s no way to know how many deaths in Gaza are Hamas (they don’t wear uniforms) but Hamas themselves has said they lost 6,000. The actual number is likely much higher. But whatever the actual number is, it’s included in the Gaza death toll numbers.

              Hamas themselves have never said they have lost 6.000. They have never released any number.

              Israel has released numbers. 1400. 1200. 1139. 695.

            Oh my bad, soldiers and police trying to protect concertgoers from getting slaughtered wholesale at a music festival are fair game. Do you hear yourself?

              The soldiers mostly got killed in military bases. Which happen to be stationed right next to music festivals.

              Also a lot of soldiers dancing at that music festival. Nothing more fun than a rave next to a concentration camp.
