Israeli troops are fighting with Hamas militants on the edges of Gaza City, as the Palestinian death toll rises above 9,000. U.S. and Arab leaders are raising pressure on Israel to ease its siege and at least briefly halt its attacks in order to aid civilians.

    I don’t understand why this is controversial. I’m not pro-palestine by any definition - nor anti, but I am very much opposed to one-sided conquests.

        But checking the numbers of civilian deaths and injured count on both sides, even before the 7th of October paints a slightly different picture, don’t you think?

        155K injured Palestinians vs 6K Israelis. https://www.ochaopt.org/data/casualties

        26 times more injured, don’t you think that’s a bit extreme?
