Since October 7, more than 3,257 children have been reported killed, including at least 3,195 in Gaza, 33 in the West Bank, and 29 in Israel, according to the Ministries of Health in Gaza and Israel respectively. The number of children reported killed in just three weeks in Gaza is more than the number killed in armed conflict globally – across more than 20 countries – over the course of a whole year, for the last three years.
Yeah, but they didn't bomb the children. That's why people hide behind children, so that you won't bomb them. If they know that conventional empathy is no longer effective as deterrence, wouldn't they probably not be hiding behind children anymore? Couldn't you just be killing children at this point and its just children?
That's why Hamas is making sure civilians can't leave the strike areas. They need to maximize the dead for their own propaganda.
Do you have evidence of this? If this is true then why even give evacuation orders?
