Israel set up a miiltary base ~2 miles from the Ker Shalom crossing to prepare for their Rafah Genocide.
Hamas launched a rocket attack on it. Israel used that as pretext to close the Ker Shalom crossing to humanitarian aid.
Mainstream Western propaganda outlets such as Reuters, NYT and BBC are now laundering the lies that Hamas attacked soldiers at the crossing instead of a military base.

Uhhh… that’s evidence that they are close together, not that its the base that was attacked. Do you have pics of the base or crossing themselves as a comparison?

So:
1-All above-ground structures in Gaza are civilian structures. Do you think Israel would allow Hamas to have an above-ground military base?
2-It was launched 350m from a civilian shelter. In Rafah, one of the most overcrowded cities on Earth. It's a surprise there's a place that far from a civilian shelter.

Hamas doing bad stuff does not absolve the IDF and their Western media henchmen from misrepresenting and exaggerating in order to excuse their actions. Whatever Hamas may or may not be doing, it’s completely immaterial in the face of a fucking genocide.

Literally everything is in the post or in my comment. Consider reading before jumping in front of a bullet to shill for israel.
