Hamas Police Officer Fatally Shoots Boy Approaching Humanitarian Aid Truck to Keep Others Away:
Hamas Police Officer Fatally Shoots Boy Approaching Humanitarian Aid Truck to Keep Others Away: Report
Zero video or photo evidence, all claims lead to a single unreliable israeli propaganda site called Channel 12.
No mention of the boy on any non israeli "news" site.
What happened to talking about unreliable sources? I guess any IDF propaganda without evidence is completely fine but anti israel news with picture and video evidence isn't reliable.
Why is this source even allowed? They provided no real evidence other than pointing to Channel 12.
Is there a video? I can't see it on Channel 12, only snapshots of it. Maybe because I'm on mobile.
Even if there were evidence people would claim it's IDF fake. People don't care about evidence for this or that, they picked sides long time ago and are busy justifying their beliefs. Commenting on anything Israel related is pointless. War will develop the way military thinks it should regardless of what others write in some forum or think.
If you ever start thinking your life is miserable, think about people living in Gaza. It’s truly unfair that they have to live these lives...
On one hand, they have to deal with Hamas - atrocious terrorists who turned Gaza into the one of the most impoverished regions in the world. They stole everything they could and even behave terribly towards the citizens.
And on the other hand, they have IDF here which don't care very much about their lives and caused quite a lot of damage, as well. Add to that Israel's current right wing government and situation cannot be worse.
Oh surely you think it cannot be worse? It still can. Pretty much no one from Gaza can leave to another country because no other country will accept Gazans. Maybe because for the last 18 years they have been indoctrinated into thinking that killing a Jewish is the most saint action you can do.
On one hand, they have to deal with Hamas - atrocious terrorists who turned Gaza into the one of the most impoverished regions in the world.
Truer words man.... Palestinians have it rough. Honestly I can't see it improving under Hamas in any scenario. Keeping them poor and in pain keeps Hamas in power.
Perhaps when Israel take control they'll do the smart thing and pump some money into the region...it'd be a hard sell for any government though after Oct 7.
They will pump money into it but I am afraid it can end just like west bank did.
On one hand, they have to deal with Hamas - atrocious terrorists who turned Gaza into the one of the most impoverished regions in the world.
Correction: Israel turned Gaza into one of the most impoverished regions in the world.
As always with any story, its important to get evidence.
I'll wait for evidence and/or more reporting, but unless something comes out this is pretty damning.
The cognitive dissonance in the comments is pathetic as always. Fuck the IDF but also fuck Hamas. Anything negative on Hamas is instantly discredited until the proof is unquestionable.
So much good faith in Hamas when they don’t deal in good faith themselves:
CAIRO, Dec 25 (Reuters) - Hamas and the allied Islamic Jihad have rejected an Egyptian proposal that they relinquish power in the Gaza Strip in return for a permanent ceasefire, two Egyptian security sources told Reuters on Monday.
Hamas is 100% continuing this war just like the IDF is, they are both disgusting and are using the Palestinian people as the pawns
I agree. 100%. Like YES, Israel is being maximum scum by retaliating with excessive force. We get it, they have all the "1st world countries" funding them. They keep murdering people with a crazy multiplier compared to Palestine.
But to pretend that Hamas is not at all culpable or disgusting for their OWN actions is not it.
Hamas has an official police force?
They are literally the Gazan government.
A story with zero evidence?
And Israel has been killing so many Hamas but they still openly have police patrolling the streets?
This is disgusting and should never happen.
True. But looking at the sources it most likely didn't.
Fuck every hypocrite that has conntributed to this nonsense.
Why does Netanyahu continue to prop up Hamas?
Hopefully now we can all be on the same page that Hamas and the IDF are both bad guys, and they both hurt the Palestinian people. Hamas less so, but as this story illustrates, they are no friend to Palestinians.
This fits with a report from the beginning of the war that said Hamas had stockpiles of food, water, and medicine that they were keeping just for themselves while Israel tried to starve the Palestinians to death.
There is a humanitarian crisis in Gaza and Hamas is causing it
Yeah, nothing to do with military occupation, indiscriminate bombing, targeting of infrastructure, or Israel not allowing in aid.
It's almost as if two things can be true.
Absolutely, however you’re being reductive here.
CAIRO, Dec 25 (Reuters) - Hamas and the allied Islamic Jihad have rejected an Egyptian proposal that they relinquish power in the Gaza Strip in return for a permanent ceasefire, two Egyptian security sources told Reuters on Monday.
You forgot foreign leadership continuing to use the Palestinian people’s lives as currency for their operations and future plans.
Israel and Hamas, working together to hurt the Palestinian people.
That's how it's been since Hamas was founded with Israeli aid, and how it's been ever since.
Hamas and Netanyahu are allies.
Dude, quit blaming one group of sociopathic religious/ethno nationalists. It’s like if two street gangs were having a gun brawl outside of an elementary school and you were asking which gang had the most legitimate grievances.
No, they're not the one blocking aid and bombing their own infrastructure and killing thousands of civilians.
Looks like its Egypt and the UN who are blocking aid.
This is a weird story, just because it takes place in front a backdrop of widespread child death and social collapse.
The thing is, it's STILL a tragedy. It just feels odd. Like reporting "American soldier from Illinois drowns during operation in Normandie" or "Woman killed in vehicular accident outside Bartertown".
Like... that's terrible, but they're in the midst of complete social collapse. There's no food or water, and also a kid dies in Gaza every 15 minutes. So again, it's really heartbreaking that this kind -- Ahmed Bracha -- died. It's just hard to figure how one writes an article about this particular child dying while apparently trying to get food among so many corpses of children trying to get food.
There needs to be a ceasefire. The siege must end. Hostages on both sides need to go home. This is truly atrocious.

Neither side wants a ceasefire
I reject the framing of "Neither side": there are not two sides, there are many.
First, I think what you mean is that the Netanyahu government and Sinwar's Hamas don't want a ceasefire. And technically, it's more accurate to say that neither side wants a ceasefire along the terms offered by the other.
Secondly, though, I don't support either of these two parties. I didn't say "there needs to be a ceasefire when Hamas and Likud feel like it". Both sides are currently run by war criminals, and the matter shouldn't be in their hands.
I'm an American Jew, and my primary interest is compelling my president and government to stop providing material/logistical/political support for genocide. I want conditions on aid to Israel, and a formal declaration that the US position is that the war has gone far beyond securing Israel's safety and is clearly destabilizing the security of Israel, the US, and the region (not to mention Palestinian noncombatants). And if Netanyahu and Sinwar don't like it, that's good because their interests are diametrically opposed to mine.
Hamas and the PA don't control countries. They control internally occupied territories under military control of Israel (different degrees in Gaza and the West Bank), which controls all imports, exports, food, water, travel, etc of the Occupied Palestinian Territories. Gaza is literally undergoing famine extreme water scarcity, with extremely limited medical aid by the design of Israel. Israel has been in complete control, either internally or externally, of Gaza and the West Bank since 1967
International pressure is how this ends, like it did with South Africa
They are not the same even if there's bad guys on both sides. Israel is a rich state with an advanced military that tries to keep the other side in the relative stone age without any resources whatsoever. It is becoming clearer every day that this is meant to drive Gazans off of their own land, into Egypt or dead, doesn't matter
What if I don't think both sides are bad guys, but I do think both sides need to sit down and talk?
The concept of "bad guys" or "evil" is completely useless in international politics.
I just hope some day, they can manage what Germany and France did: Become friendly, allied nations after over a millennium of rivalry and constant wars.
Israel and Hamas are both shit.
I only care about the Palestinians stuck in the shitshow.
Palestine bad
The state of Palestine is not directly involved in this conflict.
the Palestinian people suffer greatly
The original reporting this is coming do appear to be in Gaza, but are unattributed as to who filmed them. It's also unclear if these videos were reported locally first and picked up, or if they were sent directly to N12.
So are you saying that someone in Gaza filmed this and went ahead and sent it to an Israeli news channel?
I think it's more likely they were spread through the various Telegram "news" channels and then picked up after verifying the source or at least the video/images - checking for language/location/time/that they actually show what was claimed.
Disregarding all politics, what kind of heartless bastard does something like that?
The ones waging this fucked up war. Hamas and the IDF can fucking rot.
ACAB applies internationally.
Very few wars have good guys. And this entire conflict is two sides having an Olympic competition to be the shittiest group on the planet
The terrorist kind
People who grow up believing that when the innocent die, they go to heaven.
They simply don't value human life the way rational people do.
It's 2 groups of people who want their own state on the same piece of land.
Religion is a side aspect at best.
