Bombing in the south of the tiny, crowded Gaza Strip killed scores of people overnight, local authorities said, and the Abu Marasa family is one of several Reuters spoke to that have concluded they may as well go back to their homes in the north.
More than a dozen members of the family were crowded into a car on the edge of Khan Younis, the main city of southern Gaza, their belongings strapped to the roof for the perilous journey back north through the bombardment.
"Why should we be martyrs in Khan Younis? We would better die as martyrs in our houses. Let the whole building fall on our heads," said Saleem Abu Marasa, preparing to drive back.
How do you regain access to your border without attacking it? How do you think Israel started enforcing that border blockade? They killed the palestinians there. Israeli politicians arent gonna waltz up to the border for hamas to attack instead.
The common thread of all the attacks is they were all immediately on the border, like some within just a mile.
Yeah, Israel set up neighborhoods as a human shield, the policies of Israel are absolutely evil and shouldn't be allowed. That being said, Hamas attacking civilians does nothing to help Palestinians.
Doing nothing does nothing to help palestinians. Protesting does nothing to help palestinians. Humanitarian efforts do nothing to help palestinians because israel blocks them out. At some point theyre gonna lash out for survival.
And attacking Israeli citizens gets an instant genocide.
They already were being killed off.

Love how its hiding behind children when israel kills the children bombing deep into Gaza, but heinous killing of innocent civilians when Hamas attacks the very edge of Israel.
