In 11 days of fighting, 242 Palestinians died, according to the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, and 12 people in Israel were killed, Israeli emergency-response organization Magen David Adom said.Ahmed Deeb for The Wall Street Journal
Azzam Al-Kolak, 42, lived on the top floor of a three-story building that caved in. He said he escaped with his wife and children through his kitchen, which suddenly was on the ground level. He said engineers who visited the site told him the building dropped some 40 feet below street level. “I’m just alone,” said Ms. Al-Kolak, a 22-year-old artist and student who was looking forward to the graduation party her mother had planned after she finishes her university degree next month. “Everything is dark.”Residents said they weren’t aware of militant activities or tunnels in the neighborhood.
With no designated bomb shelters in the area, residents along Al-Wahda Street huddled together in their homes, figuring it was the safest place to wait out the bombing raids. Most have no ability to leave Gaza due to Israeli and Egyptian border closures and restrictions that make it nearly impossible to flee the fighting.
Tell Hamas to quit putting command & control centers in residential neighborhoods..
Fight against Hamas not Israel. Civilians in Gaza are used by Hamas cowards as live shield. Stop fuel the hate. They store missiles in the houses, schools hospitals, mosques. This is what Hamas doing when you all chant free palestine.
Surprisingly, terrorists are getting a wide support when their human shield is getting hit. Does it mean that terrorism actually works? Seeing how Palestinian cause and methods get support even in the UN makes me wonder in what world are we living.
Nothing like this happened under Trump. Arabs see Biden as a frail weak old man.
