Dozens killed in Israeli attack on al-Mawasi, Hamas denies fighters in C&C center at that time
2024-09-10
[GEOTV] Dozens of Palestinians were killed and scores of others injured in an Israeli attack on tents in the al-Mawasi area of Khan Younis, in the southern Gaza Strip.

A spokesperson for Gaza's Civil Defence that at least 20 tents were hit in the attack.

Hamas denies its fighters were in targeted tent camp
[IsraelTimes] The Hamas terror group claims in a statement that its operatives were not in the al-Mawasi humanitarian zone near Khan Younis when it was hit by Israeli fighter jets.

Israel says it a targeted a Hamas command and control center embedded in the tent camp, while taking multiple steps to minimize harm to civilians.

“The occupation’s allegations of the presence of resistance fighters are a blatant lie,” Hamas says in a statement on Telegram.

The group has repeatedly denied embedding within civilian populations, despite evidence to the contrary.
The Times of Israel also quantifies:
An official in the Hamas-run Gaza Strip says at least 40 people were killed and 60 injured in an Israeli strike on a humanitarian zone in southern Gaza where the military said Hamas was operating a command and control center.

The official says the number represents those who were found and transferred to hospitals, with civil defense officials indicating more people may be missing beneath the wreckage.

Israeli army orders another mass displacement in northwest Gaza
[NEWARAB] The Israeli military said Monday it ordered the evacuation of several neighbourhoods and towns near Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
City, warning of imminent fighting after rockets were launched from the area.

Avichay Adraee, a military front man, posted on social media platform X a map showing several areas in the Gaza Strip's northwest for its invasion, declaring them part of a "dangerous combat zone".

Israel has issued numerous evacuation orders during its war on Gaza.
No doubt this annoys the residents, but it does get them and their children out of the crossfire.
The evacuation orders have covered most of Gaza's territory, according to the UN, and include areas that the military had previously said were largely cleared of Paleostinian gangs.

Hamas says denial of education to Palestinian children is “deliberate violation”
[GEOTV] The Palestinian group has issued a statement saying that this crime ''will not break our people's will, or erase their identity or take away their national rights''.

Hamas, on its official Telegram channel, said the denial of 630,000 students of their right to education is a ''deliberate violation to all rights stipulated by international laws, which leaves the international community and UN agencies responsible to put an end to these crimes'', reported Al Jazeera.
Even in the Warsaw Ghetto and the post-war Cyprus internment camps the Jews provided classes for their children. It can be done, if the culture makes it a priority. Hamas has a minister of education — he should stop lolling at his ease in the deep tunnels and see to educating the kids. Maybe even add some of the 3Rs instead of spending so much time on marching with fake guns and diving through flaming hoops.

#3  Update from the Times of Israel:

At least 19 Palestinians were reported killed as the Israeli military said it struck three senior Hamas operatives at a command room embedded within an Israeli-designated humanitarian zone in the southern Gaza Strip early Tuesday morning.

In a statement, the Israel Defense Forces said fighter jets struck “significant Hamas terrorists” who were based in the command center in Khan Younis. Palestinian media reported that the strikes took place in the al-Mawasi region on the Strip’s southern coast, west of Khan Younis.

The Hamas commanders had “advanced and deployed terror plots against IDF troops and Israeli civilians,” the military said.

They were later named by the IDF as Samer Ismail Khader Abu Daqqa, the head of Hamas’s aerial forces; Osama Tabash, the head of surveillance and targets in Hamas’s intelligence division; and Ayman Mabhouh, another senior Hamas officer.

All three were “directly involved in the October 7 massacre” and in other attacks on troops in Gaza and against Israel in recent months, the IDF said.

The military did not immediately confirm if the three were killed in the strike.

Gaza’s Health Ministry said it confirmed that at least 19 people were killed in the strike, and that the toll may rise as more bodies are recovered.

The Hamas health ministry said more than 60 others are wounded, and the death toll may rise as some victims are still under the rubble and sand.
