I dk what you think you're saying but you're just admitting that Israel kills civilians on purpose. You're dropping the veil of "human shields" and admitting that Israel is putting the civilians where they know Hamas is so they can use it as an excuse to kill both.

It was struck because militants were firing from it. Yes, there will be civilian casualties while Hamas is hiding in civilian structures. That’s what Hamas does.
