Maybe they went to the Maldives Cafe together. Thats why they also bombed the Maldives Cafe in Gaza.
Dowaesk is a nation set in the year 2041 in the Indian Ocean. An alternative future where Laccadives, Suvadives and Chagos are independent. And these 3 countries along with the Maldives join together to form Dowaesk. Much like how the EU is made up.

Kowani wrote:Attempting to defend bombing media offices, IDF chief of staff, Lieutenant-General Aviv Kohavi claimed that journalists "drank coffee" with Hamas members in a café the israelis blew up... only it turned out no such café existed

Israel’s defence minister has distanced himself from comments made by his military chief after Israel bombed a Gaza Strip high-rise housing Al Jazeera and The Associated Press offices as well as other news outlets, saying the remarks were not meant to be taken literally.

In an article published on the website of Israel’s Channel 12 news over the weekend, the military chief of staff, Lieutenant-General Aviv Kohavi, was quoted as saying “the building was destroyed justly” and he did not have a “gram of regret”. The article claimed Hamas used various floors of the al-Jalaa tower for “significant electronic warfare” meant to disrupt Israeli air force GPS communications.

The article then said Kohavi told “a foreign source” the AP’s journalists drank coffee each morning in a cafeteria in the building’s entrance with Hamas electronics experts, whether they knew it or not.

The AP called the comments “patently false”, noting “there was not even a cafeteria in the building”. “I have been working in this office for more than 10 years and I have never seen anything [suspicious],” Al Jazeera’s Gaza correspondent Safwat al-Kahlout said the day after the Israeli air raid levelled the tower.

“I even asked my colleagues if they’ve seen anything suspicious and they all confirmed to me that they have never seen any military aspects or the fighters even coming in and out,” he added. “In our building we have lots of families that we know for more than 10 years, we meet each other every day on our way in and out to the office.”

Asked about Kohavi’s comments, Defence Minister Benny Gantz told foreign journalists on Monday the military chief was only speaking in figurative terms.

“When the chief of staff talked about it, he was trying to portray the atmosphere, not the actual aspects,” Gantz said.

Israel's exercising its right to defend itself the same way I did when I was high, saw a shadow man standing out in the field and shot him with my finger gun.

Only difference is thank God i didn't have a real gun on me.

in which things get worse

Israel’s ban on the entry of humanitarian aid and relief supplies for Gaza’s civilian population—which forms part of Israel’s unlawful collective punishment imposed on over two million Palestinians—is further exacerbating the already desperate humanitarian conditions in the Strip. In particular, the Israel authorities and military have heightened Gaza’s energy crisis by systematically targeting power lines, banning the entry of fuel needed to operate Gaza’s sole power plant, and refusing to repair four of the main power lines damaged during the recent aggression at the time of publication.

Al Mezan’s documentation shows that during the latest aggression Israeli forces extensively targeted water and electricity networks, and this happened in parallel to the Israeli authorities’ tightening of closure measures—including a ban on the entry of fuel funded by Qatar. The ensuing energy crisis in Gaza has undermined essential services, hindered access to water in multi-story buildings, and prevented sewage from being treated.

The Gaza Electricity Distribution Corporation (GEDCO) stated that the ban on the entry of fuel used to operate the power plant has caused a decline in the amount of electricity produced by the plant, which has a current capacity of no more than 45 mw. As a result, the aggregate amount of electricity available in the Gaza Strip from all sources is about 116 mw, while the average demand ranges between 425 mw during the morning hours and increases during the day and evening to exceed 540 mw. GEDCO estimated that the gap between supply and demand of electricity is about 75%, prompting the company to supply only four hours of electricity at a time followed by 16 hours of power cut.

As background, it is worth pointing out that Gaza’s electricity supply comes from two sources: the first being Israel’s electricity company, which supplies 120 mw of electricity to the Gaza Strip through ten lines; the second being the Gaza Power Plant, the transformers and fuel tanks of which have been bombed multiple times by Israel since 2006 and of which the capacity has been reduced from 140 mw to 70 mw. By comparing these quantities with the actual need of Gaza’s residents as estimated by GEDCO, it is clear that the energy deficit immensely undermines life in Gaza, notably by hindering the population’s access to livelihoods, economic sectors and basic services, including healthcare.

So the only way for aids or reliefs to get in is through the Egyptian controlled border crossing, I suppose.

Israel will not allow that. They would have gone to war with Egypt long ago if the Egyptian government made real efforts to relieve the humanitarian crisis Israel has created in Gaza.

Anyone who runs, is a Hamas terrorist in training. Anyone who stands still, is a well-disciplined Hamas operative!

When a baby learns to walk too early, that's Hamas terrorism, and if you say "what, no the baby's not," you're an antisemite, a nazi and you probably have a swastika flag inside your bedroom you hateful bigot. Antisemitism is when a Jewish person has an opinion and someone doesn't agree.

Fishermen? I think you mean "Hamas terrorists". They might claim to be trying to catch fish, but in fact they're trying to reel in missiles past the blockade.
