The buildings are now ashes’: nowhere feels safe from Israeli bombs in Gaza

There were places in Gaza where, even in times of conflict, Palestinians once felt marginally safer than elsewhere.

Urban centres, the calculation went, were better placed to avoid bombardment than the periphery of the cities, and the peripheries were safer than the rural areas, where Israeli tanks could easily enter.

Buildings facing the sea, vulnerable to shelling from the Israeli war ships just visible on the horizon, were also to be avoided, along with the tallest buildings – often thought by Israel to be used by Hamas for observation points.

On Thursday that message was reinforced as Palestinian residents of the city of Beit Lahiya, in the northern region of the Gaza Strip, which had been hit hard in previous conflicts, said Israeli planes dropped flyers warning them to evacuate their homes and to head to the “known shelters”.

“Anyone who is near Hamas terrorists will put their lives in danger,” the flyers said. “Adhering to IDF [Israel Defence Forces] instructions will prevent you from being exposed to danger.”

I love it when a plan comes together and Muzzie terrorists don’t “feel safe”. Gaza needs more “safe places.”

They have lost the war, but it’s not over in a week. Israel needs meet all their objectives.

The “Six Day War” set the record of less than a week.

June 5 - 10, 1967

It's a start !

All the warning IDF needs to give, cuz no doubt everyone there knows who's who.

They can go sell their tears for a quarter so they can call someone who cares.
