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.

    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.

      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

          Yeah last time I checked israelis are pretty well protected right now. Is Hamas currently doing a Genocidal invasion of israel or something? I think I missed that can you link it?

            Why are you answering a question that wasn’t asked? You’re defending violence against civilians and now you’re trying to weasel away from acknowledging it’s what you’re doing.

            Both governments are bad, both groups of civilians are innocent and deserve protection. But you can’t let yourself say that because you think one is less deserving than the other based on where they were born.

              You are accusing me of something that I never did. I am simply saying that Hamas has not recently murdered any civilians. Whereas israel has murdered civilians every single day recently.

                I can read between the lines. What you choose to respond to and whose atrocities you choose not to acknowledge says a lot about you.
