The Israel Defense Forces wrote to Reuters and AFP this week after they had sought assurances that their journalists in Gaza would not be targeted by Israeli strikes.

“The IDF is targeting all Hamas military activity throughout Gaza,” the IDF letter said, adding that Hamas deliberately put military operations “in the vicinity of journalists and civilians”.

The IDF also noted that its high-intensity strikes on Hamas targets could cause damage to surrounding buildings and that Hamas rockets could also misfire and kill people inside Gaza.

      Russia was using chemical weapons against civilians in Syria. At least Isreal hasn’t done that (yet).

      Not defending their genocide tho, just to be clear.

        Yes, true, they just used white phosphorus in a highly populated area, which is very questionable to say the least.
