An Israeli strike on the densely populated Jabalya refugee camp in northern Gaza caused many casualties, officials in the enclave said Tuesday.
The Hamas-controlled Ministry of Interior in Gaza reported that “20 homes were completely destroyed in the Israeli bombing that targeted a residential neighbourhood in Jabalya.”
The director of Gaza’s Indonesian hospital, Dr. Atef al-Kahlout, told CNN that “hundreds” of dead and injured people arrived at the hospital and “many are still under the rubble.” Israel Defense Forces spokesman Lt. Col. Richard Hecht confirmed to CNN that the Israeli military had launched the strike, and said it was targeting a senior commander from the Hamas militant group.

"A residential neighborhood " is stated in the article with accompanying photograph. The headline says a " refugee camp " . Same thing? I'm confused.

How much in US Aid (alone) has been given to Gaza/Hamas over the years and they still have "refugee camps." Too bad for the residents but as we like to say here in the US. Elections have consequences.

...“hundreds” of dead and injured people arrived at the hospital...
This would be the hospital that the Israelis destroyed with a missile strike?

And...? If Hamas hides there I am all for strikes on them. Unlike Hamas, Israel will try to avoid collateral damage. Hamas is more likely to shoot up (blow up) the surroundings and blame Israel.
War is ugly for those caught in the middle. Sooner its over, the sooner they can get back to their lives.

This is the fault of Hamas for hiding behind the innocent. Not only do the innocent protect the rapists, but also, pictures of injured Gazans can and will be used for fundraising so Hamas leadership can build up its property portfolio. Murder, slander, rape, robbery, lies, envy. That is Hamas. I also would accuse them of dishonoring their own parents in the sense of hiding behind the elderly when justice comes looking for them with a gun.... The worst government on earth with the stupidest fan base.

Believe nothing and nobody. Both sides lie as easily as they breathe. Anyone can work Photoshop and make pictures of anything they want. We are truly in a time of universal deceit.
If you want to see who is doing the lying, look to who benefits from the story.

We, of course, do not celebrate "civilian" casulaties. But Hamas wants the war fought by using civilians as shields. But on the other hand, many of those "civilians" have supported Hamas and their radical Islamic bretheren for generations. No one there wants to or is willing to stand up against them.
That's what happens when you bet on the losing side. So 20 homes were destroyed. I'm guessing that means Hamas is going to claim 400 dead or something like that.

This just in: February, 1945. The British Royal Air Force (RAF) and the United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) firebombed the German city of Dresden. Roughly 25,000 civilians were killed.
Fun fact: the Germans started it; same as the Philistines started the current war. As the bruthas here in the States would say, "Don't start nothin'; there won't be nothin'." It's a war, ladies. You win a war by killing more of your enemy's people than they kill of yours. The Philistines are Hamas and Hamas is the Philistines. Be assured that they would kill every non-muslim on the planet if given the chance.
Scroom!

That’s too damn bad. They shouldn’t have attacked Israel. I hope the IDF levels Gaza and wipes them out.

So, don't start wars. And the difference between an "Palestinian refugee" and a "Hamas terrorist" is.....undetectable by any normal person. They are identical.

During their attacks on Israel, Hamas lobbed thousands of missiles into Israel, no specific targets, and just intended to do as much destruction and death of civilian areas in Israel as possible. Where was the outrage?
Israel must eradicate Hamas from this earth for their own security. Israel did not start this war, but they must see it to its end. As long as Hamas hides behind women's skirts, they are going to be responsible for far more collateral damage than needs to happen. But the blood of those Palestinians is 100% of Hamas' hands -- not that Hamas cares anything about the Palestinians.
Of course, this is CNN, and the reporting of two muslims. So take it for what it is worth, which is nothing!!!

Palestinians have the power to end their destruction.
1. Stop invading Israel.
2. Stop firing rockets at Israel.
3, Release the hostages.
4. Arrest and turn over the Oct 7 criminals.
5. Eliminate Hamas.
6. Stop teaching their children to hate.
