““The erasure of civilian protections in the evacuated area was combined with indiscriminate targeting of evacuees and inhabitants of the areas designated as safe zones… Of the roughly 500 2,000-pound bombs dropped by Israel in the first six weeks of hostilities, 42 percent were deployed in the designated safe zones in southern areas.””
42 pct is a hell lot!!
I know someone who went to a “safe area” and on the night Israel sent a Rocket near her and killed 42 people.
Yeah, that shocked me as well. They framed it as “well, it’s mostly a safe zone, but sometimes we’re forced to…”. Nope, it just wasn’t a safe zone, it may actually have been less safe, given that IIRC safe zones are a minority of the strip.
For me, what striked the most was.
