I find it suspicious that they don’t say how many of the 90 casualties are children and seem to imply that it’s not the majority.
If it was actually a school, you’d expect it to be 80+ children.
If they manage to hit 90 people at a school and say 60 of them were adults, then it was definitely Hamas using children as human shields again.
I suspect it’s the later, but id love to see the actual numbers.
Edit: I found more info, the school wasn’t being used as a school at all. It had been turned into a shelter a while ago. So the fact that the article is talking about the destruction of education is just patently false.
If you look at the demographics of Gaza, that may not be as far off as you think. The median age for the whole area is only 19, and there is proof Hamas is recruiting as young as 12.
Christ, that’s depressing. It’s wild what people have to do to survive when they don’t have a military and the world’s preeminent superpower is funding their country’s ethnic cleansing.
XD omg did you think school was actually in session? In Gaza?! Hahaha I usually don’t comment on braindead takes but I’m going to classify yours as "satire"and make my comment.
then it was definitely Hamas using children as human shields again.
Consistent with a braindead take XD
The cherry on top is your edit where you realized that Israel bombed a shelter, but didn’t realize that the destruction of education had already happened and turned the school into a shelter, which brings us back to the beginning when you thought school was in session!
This will be your only warning. Do not make bad faith comments like this. It’s entirely fine to bring new information and to correct people, it is not okay to insult people like this.
When children are busy hiding and taking shelter instead of learning, isn’t that a destruction of education? You’re correct though, they haven’t destroyed just the education, they have destroyed everything there.

You could always go with the Obama method and just count every person above the age of twelve as an “enemy combatant”.
