The Israeli military said 47 Palestinians were killed in the weekend of fighting — at least 14 of them by Islamic Jihad-fired rockets that fell short.
In Gaza, the ruling Hamas militant group heavily polices dissent, and many Palestinians view armed groups as freedom fighters defending their homeland in the face of Israeli aggression. , Islamic Jihad had fired hundreds of rockets into Israel, and Israeli aircraft had struck dozens of suspected militant targets.
Islamic Jihad said 12 of its fighters were killed, a smaller armed group said it lost a fighter, and Hamas said two Hamas-affiliated policemen who did not take part in the fighting were killed. Israel said it killed at least 20 militants and seven civilians. The Al-Mezan human rights group said some civilians were killed by “projectiles” rather than Israeli airstrikes. The Palestinian Center for Human Rights said it has so far confirmed that 27 people were killed by Israeli strikes — far below the overall toll.
Islamic Jihad had announced a rocket attack on the southern Israeli city of Ashkelon, just north of Jebaliya, at around the same time as the explosion.
They admitted the lie
may
I was watching live stream from Gaza and a rocket fired by islamic jihad(PIJ) misfired and hit a residential building right in front of filming reporters. Next minute ambulances arrived.
Oh, so Israel only killed 2/3 of the victims that's fine then

Davebrigg Comment or Crickets?
I almost fell out of my chair reading this headline. Israel was right.
Why doesn't this have a disclaimer Twitter
This was some resistance rockets ?
Palestinians being held hostage by their own extremists. This situation only benefits Israel as it continues to prosper while palestinians continue to wallow in hopelessness and total dependence on international aid like beggars.
SussexFriends More like 2/3s.
If the Nazis said that the Jews were killed by the flu, would you publish it
stop lying just shut uuuuuuup shuut up
This article makes a good case for giving Palestinians better weapons to fight off their illegal occupiers. The fact they are relying on makeshift weapons against a genocidal regime shows how desperate they are how they need to help of the international community. Free Palestine
Lies lies. The Palestinians killed their own people with a bad rocket launch. Fact.
According to who? 🤦♂️ Same story like Shireen A.A. After AP office bombed, after Shireen, and still you give this thugs a chance to explain 🤦♂️
Lies after lies
jpjanson So the other two thirds, the majority - what did they die of?
Aras_Nathan Weird choice to retweet AP, Aras. Or did you condemn this?
Haha according to Israel assessment and the neutral stuck up Israhells ass media of course 🙄
If it was an Israeli missile then there would be no Gaza right now 🤷♀️🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱
People say that Israel has the “right to defend” itself. Of course, that’s true. But, more importantly, they have an OBLIGATION to defend & save their civilians. Pal. “militants” know this, yet they willingly sacrifice their own in pursuit of their attacks on Israeli civilians.
The Palestinians have managed to kill more of their own people either with misfired rockets in residential areas or using them as human shields.
Israel isn’t exactly known for honesty
Quick! Look out the window and check for flying pigs!
MashaGabriel Los otros dos tercios fueron asesinados por el ejército de Israel.
portraitinflesh 🇵🇸🧐
Israel started. Israel is responsible. Israel prosecute Palestinians, condemned to live in a giant cage all their life. Sorry to deceive you.
Actually addressing both sides of a story. Nice.
Kindly issue a correction that either 100% of “palestinians” were killed by the “palestinian” terrorist regime and its allies, or that 0% of them were killed by Israeli action.
Other words,Palestinians KILLED Palestinians.
Wow truth
You want us to take you seriously when you labelled illegal occupation as 'war-won lands sought by Palestinians'.. disgusting bias
Ostrov_A The other two-third who died were terrorists and their commanders.
Imagine if Texas had to worry about missiles and rockets being shot into the state from Mexico, how long would Texans just ignore it?
Sure thing, rabbi. All those children and women were killed by their own people. The experts have spoken...
And also AP building in Palestine collapsed due to a fart 💨 by staff… Sad to see AP has sacrificed its credibility to please the Israeli terrorists…
Anyone with a shred of sense and credibility knows this to be true. The evidence that the Palestinian terrorists are the bad guys here is overwhelming. They don’t care one iota about the civilians.
Well, duh. Shocking!

lmharpin An 'Israeli Assessment'.
Facts won’t work with the “true believers”. They are so far down the rabbit hole with Hamas propaganda that nothing will bring them back. They trust a totalitarian terrorist criminal organization more than verifiable facts, hobby rockets more than laser-guided missiles. 🙄
كاذبون....
ELINTNews 'According to an Israeli assessment', basically 'we investigated ourselves and found we did nothing wrong'.
Only one-third? I doubt it.
Israel propaganda
Does as a policy not to show militant casualties in Gaza during a conflict? Yes or no?
Mire than half of the civilians. 1/3rd is including confirmed terrorists.
It's called the Palestinian boomerang missile
SMH 🤦♀️! Always an excuse
You guys should be called Associated Puppets, you give journalism a bad name .
Really! Really you do! Shame on you
this is reckless propaganda
Hamas should have a word with their terrorist rival, Islamic Jihad. Cant threaten Israel and put your own people at risk with your own rocket attacks. Shameful.
🔴The children of Palestine are still clinging to life despite the bombing of their homes by the Israeli occupation forces
And Shireen shot herself. If you want to do Israeli PR go work for them.
Lol
Was it the same people that assessed the murder of Shireen Abu Akleh, a journalist reporting on Israel’s atrocities.
