IDF says Palestinian militant groups fired salvo from Rafah area as Israel’s offensive in Gaza’s southernmost city continues

It’s mental to me that you’re being down voted. I know by making this comment I’ll join the down vote club, but whatever.
Those who are down voting ask yourself, which state in the world would accept their neighbour indiscriminately firing missiles at their civilians?
Hamas attempts to murder innocent Israelis, IDF responds by attempting to take out position where rockets came from. Hamas keep (and often concentrate) civilians near launch site who get killed, they publish the aftermath, now Israel is the bad guy for not allowing Hamas to indiscriminately murder people.
Ask yourself, had Israel not been able to shoot down the rockets and they hit a school, how would you feel about the deaths of Israeli children?
If you say “I’d feel terrible, children are children”, then you’re halfway there. Israel are taking steps to protect their children as any rational actor would. Hamas are quite literally putting them in the firing line. Why not let the children in the tunnels? Why not fire rockets far away from civilians?
