Does the Iron Dome not cover the crossings?
Hamas says Israeli army headquarters hit
The Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, has shared a video that shows its fighters launching a barrage of rockets at the Karem Abu Salem (Kerem Shalom) crossing between Gaza and Israel.
It said the rockets hit Israeli military “command headquarters and mobilisations” at the crossing, “leaving soldiers dead and wounded”. Meanwhile, the Israeli president claimed that Hamas “attacked humanitarian aid because they don’t care for humanity”.
“The world must act to release the hostages, and free the people of Gaza from Hamas’s vicious rule,” Isaac Herzog said in a post on X.
I don't see army headquarters, no footage of the impact site. But it will surely only harden Israel's stance to go into Rafah.
This is how Fox reports it. Note the perfectly trained camera on the launch site... And the explosion is the Israeli retaliation. They don't show any of the rocket impacts, nor any damage, nor any wounded. Just keep repeating the provided IDF footage.
Then they just go on about the very generous Israeli offer for a short pause to exchange hostages. Hezbollah firing rockets into Israel. Never mentioning any attacks from Israel on Gaza and Lebanon. Followed by more one sided drivel about the Student protests, anarchy on campuses and the invasion of Rafah.
Nothing, zero, nada about what's happening in Gaza.
This is what such an attack on Karem Shalom looked like in 2014 (previous war)
