“Of the 1,750+ rockets that they have fired since Monday, 300 misfired and exploded inside Gaza, killing and injuring innocent Gazans in the vicinity,” the IDF stated.
“This is because Hamas and Islamic Jihad deliberately place rocket launchers and military sites within densely populate civilian areas in the Gaza Strip.”
“In addition, when the IDF warns Gazan civilians to evacuate, Hamas and Islamic Jihad encourage civilians to stay instead.”
