Israeli officials said the initial strike, which targeted the Hamas commander Muhammad Deif, hit the compound with at least five precision-guided missiles. The blast near the rescue workers was nearly 100 yards away from the entrance to the compound, suggesting a separate strike.
An aerial image of the first strike published by the Israeli military and analyzed by The Times indicates the resulting crater was close to 60 feet in diameter, indicative of a 2,000-pound bomb. President Biden has paused the delivery of these weapons to Israel since May over concerns about the civilian casualties they might cause.
Looks like the reason Biden didn’t send those 2000 pound bombs is because israel still has some in stock. Always handy for when you need to bomb a refugee camp in your designated safe zone
“precision guided missiles” btw.
Oh man… this conflict is so, so, SO hard to watch or bear. It’s so hard to process this kind of devastation.
Sometimes I feel kind of numb (like right now), and other times it gives me nightmares. Both are unpleasant. Even though they certainly don’t compare at all to actually living through all this in Gaza.
I thought he finally restarted deliveries of those a few days ago. I guess Israel found out all they have to say is that some Hamas guy was somewhere in the crowd, doesn’t matter if it’s true or not.
Genocide Joe restarted deliveries on the 500 point bombs because israel said they were running out of everything.
So poor israel will soon have to throw 4 huge bombs instead of one enormous bomb on Palestinian refugee camps if Biden doesn’t pull through.
