The Israeli military had US support in rescuing four captives from Gaza in a “complex daytime operation” in Nuseirat that killed over 200 Palestinians.

A US official told Axios that the US hostages cell in Israel had “supported” the effort to rescue the captives.

The Palestinian government media office in Gaza said the death toll from Israel’s attack on central Gaza had reached at least 210, with 400 more wounded.

“The occupation has annihilated the Nuseirat refugee camp. Innocent and unarmed civilian were bombed in their homes. I’ve never seen anything like this. It’s a catastrophe,” local Nidal Abdo told Middle East Eye.

"I came from the camp to here in the hospital on foot. I can’t describe how we fled. I saw dead children and body parts strewn all over as we fled. No one was able to assist them. I saw an elderly man killed on a animal-drawn cart.

“Nuseirat was being annihilated. It was hell.”

It said: “American participation in the criminal operation that was carried out today proves once again the complicit role of the American administration, its full participation in the war crimes committed in the Gaza Strip, [and] the falsity of its declared positions on the humanitarian situation and its concern for the lives of civilians.”

    We’ll ignore the fact that martyrdom is tightly intertwined with their religion.

    They’re religious fanatics. Similar to US conservatives which I assume you’d have no problem criticizing.

    Your reply doesn’t address my assessment of Hamas’ attitude toward their own citizens. It’s nice and snarky though and will do well here on Lemmy.

      So, this comes down to trusting NYT reporting, something they have shown they are not capable of deserving.

      Hummus are terrorists, fuck them and I hope that anyone involved in terroristic activities dies in pain.

      I like how you completely ignored everything I said though.

            Again, you’re overly concerned with the source rather than the content. Do you think VOA is making up an EU condemnation?

            That can’t be because anyone who thinks that would simply open another tab in their browser and look for a different source which may corroborate this one.

            So you just want to be obtuse. Literally nothing I say will convince you. Considering that, I think we’re done here.

              There you go! A source that is not a state owned media by the US you r one that has not already been tainted by showing a clearly Israeli bias and then trying to cover up and exterminate the leaks.

              We all know that they are using human shields, they are complete and total bastards.

              That still does not make it okay for that ratio.

              I can accept that there will be a ratio, there’s no helping that but 1 adult for 5 children is too high.

              That is using the lowest number I have seen and only addressing children.

              Would you be okay with 5 kids dying to save you?
