They are killed while playing!
Between their fun and their death, there were only a few minutes, which were enough for the planes to arrive and spot them stealing moments of joy, trying to pass the time by playing next to the displacement tents, which they had taken refuge in after fleeing under the showers of bullets from their homes, before they turned into rubble in Jabalia camp.
They were ten young children, five of them were killed instantly, their tender bodies turned into charred corpses and body parts scattered in the streets and roads, and the others were seriously injured and were transferred to receive treatment in hospitals that were in danger of going out of service.
Two days ago, families including women, children and patients, carried in carts, were bombed by quadcopters while they were fleeing, and their remains were scattered in the streets, while ambulance crews were prevented from reaching them.
All of this is being implemented in accordance with the so-called “Generals’ Plan,” a plan that relies on tactics aimed at displacing about half a million citizens who are still suffering in the north, by starving them, depriving them of water, or killing them directly.
One of the plan's provisions includes a warning to residents of the north: "Anyone who remains in the area after the siege is imposed will be considered a Hamas fighter, regardless of his identity, and will be subject to killing."
The hellish plan has two goals, one apparent and the other implicit. The apparent one carries the slogan of subduing Hamas, while the implicit one is killing, terrorizing and displacing people, and giving free rein to rebuilding settlements within an ideological vision covered by security blankets.
Stop the killing now...!
