Hamas fires rockets towards the Tel Aviv area in central Israel for the first time in months.

Hamas says it has launched a rocket attack towards the Tel Aviv area in central Israel for the first time in nearly four months. At least eight rockets were launched from the Rafah area in southern Gaza and several were intercepted, the Israeli military says. No injuries have been reported.

    That link is broken. But here’s one.

    Israel’s military, which is trying to eliminate Hamas in Gaza, said it was investigating reports that a strike it carried out against commanders of the Islamist militant group in Rafah had caused the fire.

    If Hamas is camping amongst citizens, expect this to happen again.

        I brought Reuters and you brought… whatever that site is.

        Arguing this stuff on Lemmy reminds me of arguing with right-wingers on Facebook back when I had one - y’all post the most obscure sources.

        And the children thing comes up too instead of acknowledging the fact that Hamas actively uses human shields by camping with civilians.

        So, again, if they’re going to camp with civilians, expect this to happen again.

            Hamas knows countries following the Geneva convention are more careful with noncombatants nearby.

            That affords them some level of protection and you’re demonstrating exactly how with the genocide comment, besides Israel actually being more careful.

            Hamas actively tries to get citizens killed to get people like you to say those things and lobby their governments to stop attacking them.

            Weird way to conduct a genocide - warn everyone to evacuate an area before attacking your target.

          God forbid there is a news reality that is not in English anywhere in the world. This is why russia is focusing its propaganda efforts in South America and India, because it knows Anglosphere hubris will lead them to ignore non-English media bubbles, but they are very much there, that’s how a dipshit like Órban wins elections.

          PS: sorry about the rant, it’s not directed at you in particular :/

            I have no issue with the non English part. We don’t have a monopoly on truth.

            I just don’t know how I’m supposed to keep track of all these news sites to know which are to be taken seriously and which can be dismissed.

            Before they replied how am I supposed to know if they’re a Reuters or InfoWars? It takes too much bandwidth.
