... Five people suffered serious injuries, and two are in serious condition ...

How come Isrealis don't have faces, names, ages or genders?
The reports always say things like "12 dead" like it was a loss of robots.
When Palestinians die, especially if Israel can be blamed, then it's 12 dead, including 7 civilians, one of them an 8-year old boy.
No mention of the 5 non-civilian targets who were manning a rocket launcher in a school yard.

That's because typically eleven of the twelve dead would be "civilians" only in the sense that they were not in officially uniformed fighters - even though all were terrorists. The 8-year old boy would either have been volunteered to stand next to the launcher to die from the counterstrike, or would have been brought from a car accident or other accidental death to the scene of an Israeli strike for the cameras.
