At least 274 Palestinians were killed and 698 wounded in Israeli strikes on the Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, Gaza’s health ministry said on Sunday. The Israeli military said its forces came under heavy fire during the daytime operation.

The EU’s top diplomat, Josep Borrell, called it a “massacre”, while the UN’s aid chief described in graphic detail scenes of “shredded bodies on the ground”.

“Nuseirat refugee camp is the epicentre of the seismic trauma that civilians in Gaza continue to suffer,” Martin Griffiths said in a post on X, calling for a ceasefire and the release of all hostages.

    Freedom and Kidnapping are not the same thing. I wouldn’t kill people just to have a bit more land. I would kill a lot of people to get my child back.

      So Hamas doing this to free the thousands of minors imprisoned by the Israeli military system is justified?

      Interesting argument you’re making.
