30,000 in #gaza yesterday including many women/children. All those killed: men, age 18-30, most of then known to IDF as #terror activists.
Most wounded suffer smoke inhaletion NOT fire.
Hamas already issued notice- 5 of the killed belong to their armed wing. (link 1st comment)
Yesterday #Gaza, two incidents live fire directed at #IDF, 4 explosive devices on fence, hundreds of Molotov bottles throwing incidents and burning tires rolled towards fence and three failed attempts for rocket/mortar shells fired to Israel. Peaseful demonstration- no doubt
Hamas incouraged children to dress in uniform for the fence riots in #gaza hoping the in the crowd and from afar the IDF could not differenciate between children and terrorist. What kind of parent would take their children to a violent demonstration dressed as a terrorist?
Israel was quick to send various forms of immediate support to Houston after Hurricane Harvey. Israel Trauma Coalition knew from experience that a long process of healing was only beginning & continues providing support
