      Seriously. There have been about as many civilians killed in Ukraine, since February 2022. Nearly two years vs one month. One is a war, and one is very clearly an attempted genocide in progress.

    With 60-70 Hamas fighters confirmed dead. I am struggling to think of any military action in history whose victims were over 99% civilian. Even the powers they wrote the Geneva conventions over weren’t this ruthless in their pursuit of killing almost exclusively innocent people.

      What your source for 60-70? All other sources I seen say much more
      At least 1000 Hamas terrorist were killed inside of Israel (Those who infiltered at 7th of October) according to the same (Pro-Palestinian biased) source that the OP used

        You’re right about the events of 10/7. 60-70 is from since the bombing campaign began. The fog of war keeps things hard to find so I couldn’t find a recording, but here is at least a news report.

          slain 60-odd senior and mid-level Hamas leaders

          Seems like a lot to me, and it doesn’t mention the amount of regular (low level) fighters

            Exactly. That’s the only mention of any Hamas fighters killed by the bombing campaign I’ve heard of in a month. Ibwould think the IDF would be more proactive announcing any success they’ve had which they can confirm. It’s just been explaining their suspicions after they bomb a hospital or refugee camp without confirming if their suspicions were correct in most cases.
