From the photos on twitter, it looks like it hit the only soccer field in town, landing between the field and the playground next to it. Hezbollah first claimed the attack, but now that there are 10 kids dead, and another several dozen kids injured they’ve backpedaled on it.
UPDATE: 10 dead, 6 in critical, 3 moderate, 4 light, and several dozen unadmitted injured people
Uh-oh, time to kill 15,000 more civilians
Oh you try to exterminate an entire ethnic group and they refuse to die peacefully, what ignominy
Sorry, kids. It looks like you were born in the wrong country to deserve any sympathy or basic human decency.
What a monster.
Do you say the same thing when bombs fall on Palestinian hospitals?? I’m not happy about this, but I’m not happy about killing another 50,000 innocent people to avenge them.
That’s a straw man though. They didn’t say anything about the children. There’s children all over in the region being killed for no good reason. But people definitely don’t have a reason to have sympathy for the state of Israel on this as a whole.
They were born in a place where they can go to bunkers and remain safe until their military can mow down the other place fully including the children who unfortunately don’t have the biggest military backing them up.
All kids lives matter.
Reports say hezbollah has never claimed this attack, when did they claim it? Normally when hezbollah strikes somewhere they always take credit.
It was also in an area with a mostly druze arab population which does not serve in the idf. Hezbollah has no reason to strike there.
This has many indications of a false flag.
Druze serve in the IDF.
Edit: Although it’s true that Druze in the Golan are different than the rest of the Druze in Israel, in that some of them don’t serve.
Speaking with reporters at Majdal Shams, Israeli military spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said that forensics showed the rocket was an Iranian-made Falaq-1.
Hezbollah had earlier announced firing a Falaq-1 missile on Saturday, saying it had targeted an Israeli military headquarters.
It hit an area where people do not serve in the IDF.
Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said that forensics showed the rocket was an Iranian-made Falaq-1.
Daniel Hagari is the man that has lied about everything in Gaza for months. If it was an Iranian missile I expect to see proof.
It hit an area where people do not serve in the IDF.
This was generally true before the Syrian civil war. Things have changed since.
Haaretz article about itHaaretz articles are hit or mis. This article is a massive miss. 4 paragraphs in and I’m still wading through the Israeli propaganda before clicking the red cross button.
More likely it was a rocket that failed / went off course.
THIS attack JUSTIFIES killing 100000 MORE Children!
Terrible. They have been raining down rockets in Israel since Oct. 8 and no one talks about it. There are 200,000 internally displaced Israelis and sometimes it feels like no one cares.
Both the escalation on the southern Lebanon border and the resulting displacement have received a lot of media coverage. Hezbollah has kept saying that this is to keep IDF from being all focused on Gaza and that they would stop if a ceasefire is reached. Until about three month ago both Israel and Hezbollah have been trying to keep the level of escalation low.
This has changes as Israel attacked Beirut and threatened to turn it into “another Gaza” and boasting about how they could destroy all of Lebanon. Netanyahus government has aimed to escalate the war there, to draw in the US and other western allies.
Now whether we will see the full escalation now remains to be seen. Hezbollah is a whole different league compared to Hamas in terms of weapons and fighters.
How is Hezbollah attacking Israel ‘to keep them busy’ supposed to keep things from escalating?
The level of engagement remained on the low and the “unwritten rules of engagement” like keeping things within a few kilometers of the border used to be upheld by both IDF and Hezbollah
So as long as Hezbollah is only shelling those 100.000 people living closest to the border, Israel should consider it a friendly ping-pong match?
I fail to see your point. There is more displaced Lebanese and much more Lebanese killed by Israel since Oct. 7. Considering displacement overall, adding in the 2 million displaced in Gaza, the attempt to put the blame on Hezbollah fails completely.
On September 1 1939 Germany invaded Poland. On September 3, France, the UK and other UK affiliated states declared war on Germany. I hope it is obvious, that this does not put the blame of escalation on France and the UK.
So if you start shitting in my front yard, and in response I start shitting in yours, you’re saying the blame falls on me because after a few days you have more shit in your yard?
You are conviently forgetting the whole aspect that it isnt your yard, but you stole it by murdering and driving out the family that used to live there. Now some of that family is in my house and other parts of the family are in the house next over, that you are currently setting on fire.
So yeah, that is you escalating shit in that analogy.
Terrorist logic. Israel exists so everything they do is O-Tay
What Beirut attack? I didn’t hear about that.
i’m sorry. The attack on Beirut already happened in January. https://apnews.com/article/lebanon-beirut-explosion-suburbs-hezbollah-israel-2a43fe948e8cb49c64b34bb963d77f64
I must have mixed it up with the attack on Damascus in April.
The threat of turning Leba non into another Gaza also was from that time https://www.aa.com.tr/en/middle-east/israel-s-netanyahu-threatens-to-turn-northern-lebanon-into-gaza-amid-escalation-with-hezbollah-/3103473
Since then the rethoric has picked up significantly over the past months, and again with extensive international coverage of a potential escalation into Lebanon.
Hardly an “attack on Beirut.” According to this it was an attack on a Hamas commander near Beirut.
I guess that really makes it better for the civilians that got murdered in that attack.
That’s terrible but have you thought that the policies of your own state could be the root cause of it?
How dare they exist!
What? The policies?
Nah, the resistance. It is anti-semitic to resist Israel’s egregious policies.
