An Israeli military spokesperson confirmed that there were “hostage situations” in the southern city of Ofakim and the nearby kibbutz of Beeri.

Hamas said it had taken “dozens” of Israeli soldiers hostage and moved them to the Gaza Strip as footage emerged appearing to show gunmen in military fatigues leading a group of mostly barefoot women down a street in Israel.

The announcement and video verified by NBC News came hours after Hamas launched a deadly land, air and sea attack and fired a huge barrage of rockets at Israel.

    See the apologists are on top of the threads again. You sound like Putin. The crimes of the Palestinians are inexcusable.

        Our projections only ever reveal about ourselves, and never about the person onto which we thought to project.

      You sound like a spastic. I wonder how many Palestinian civilians the Israeli government has killed. They really do deserve each other.

      Self defense is inexcusable? Or only inexcusable when certain people deign to exercise such rights?

        Self-defense against this little teenage monster, huh? https://www.instagram.com/p/CyG1HdsA5I9/

        There’s no such thing as self-defense against a civilian who never hurt anybody.

        These are not incidental victims while the terrorists target the IDF. These are the targets. They are targeting innocent little girls.

        Yes, murdering and kidnapping civilians is inexcusable, why would that be excusable?

          The Israelis murder and kidnap Palestinian children on an almost daily basis. They kill Palestinians regularly. Are they not civilians being unfairly brutalized or is it only unfair when the western world says so? Or when the victims are female, another bizarre western norm.

            Lol, you assholes just love the fact that nobody’s going to look this up on Google.

            Not even close. Total Palestinian deaths this year are around 2-300, by Hamas estimates, and are mostly adults engaged in terrorism, although Hamas refuses to distinguish. That number likely also includes Palestinian victims of friendly fire. Kidnappings are negligible—unless you count arresting a terrorist as kidnnapping. Palestinian children have died, but it’s nowhere near daily or even weekly.

        This will only bring more conflict upon the people Hamas pretends to “protect”

          Worse than the abuse and degradation that they already experience? Worse than losing their land to thieves backed by the western world? Worse than being targeted by Zionist security agents?
