Israel began bombing Rafah about 4 hours ago and casualties of at least 63 - who knows how many by morning. I just saw ppl shroud a dead baby. @palestine @israel
@israel @palestine according to Al Mayadeen, casualties are now up to 100
@israel @palestine some sources reported that 2 hostages rescued from an apartment in Rafah - not confirmed
@Sherifazuhur @israel @palestine It’s been all over Israeli media and it’s not the sort of thing the IDF can lie about - the hostages have families and friends. For example, here’s JPost: https://www.jpost.com/israel-hamas-war/article-786433
@Alon @israel @palestine yes - it simply wasn’t posted yet by sources that I trust - of course, naturally one must kill 100+ and bomb a mosque to carry out a rescue in one apartment
@Sherifazuhur @israel @palestine Yeah, the point is that you should trust Israeli media more when its reporting on IDF ops.
@israel @Alon @palestine The opposite. From Day 2 when I had to appear on BBC and ISR IDF spokesman was on, I’ve heard nothing but lies, deflections and twists - this idea that a rescue requires massive bombardments as a “distraction” is a good example
@Sherifazuhur @israel @palestine Okay, but the rescue was not something Israel could fake. The hostages would have to be produced, for example.
