This is the best summary I could come up with:
The extensive damage caused by Israel’s airstrike on the Maghazi refugee camp in Gaza on Sunday night was a mistake, according to an IDF military official who spoke to KAN news on Thursday morning.
The official told KAN that, following an internal IAF investigation, it came out that the type of weaponry used did not match the nature of the mission.
Dozens of innocent civilians were killed in this strike, KAN said, adding a report that the IDF had expressed regret over the incident.
The Israeli air strike that hit central Gaza’s Maghazi refugee camp killed 70 people, according to Reuters citing Palestinian health ministry spokesman Ashraf al-Qidra on Sunday, who said the death toll was likely to climb.
The Israeli army on Sunday said it was reviewing the report of a Maghazi incident and was committed to minimizing harm to civilians, Reuters said.
Hamas, which runs Gaza, issued a statement calling the air strike “a horrific massacre” and said it was “a new war crime.”
The original article contains 319 words, the summary contains 166 words. Saved 48%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
That was the point.
Why are you debating the difference between murder and depraved indifference to life?
They’re both genocide.
So they admit war crimes. I’m waiting for international arrest warrants from the IPCC.
Riiiiight. 🙄
Meanwhile, also the IDF
see how much restraint the IDF is showing!
