Maps and documents recovered from the bodies of Hamas attackers reveal a coordinated plan to target children and take hostages inside an Israeli village near Gaza.

Documents exclusively obtained by NBC News show that Hamas created detailed plans to target elementary schools and a youth center in the Israeli kibbutz of Kfar Sa’ad, to “kill as many people as possible,” seize hostages and quickly move them into the Gaza Strip.

The attack plans, which are labeled “top secret” in Arabic, appear to be orders for two highly trained Hamas units to surround and infiltrate villages and target places where civilians, including children, gather. Israeli authorities are still determining the death toll in Kfar Sa’ad.

      54% of palestinians support hamas.

      even west bank leaders (fatah) are scared to hold elections… i hope you know why.

      palestine as an ethnicity is a modern invention. and prior to partition, jews were called Palestinians.

        Palestinians isn’t modern, zionists and racists just like to ignore that not all Palestinians are Muslim.

        Also the median age in Gaza is 18. I wonder why growing up in an open air prison would lead you to fall in with extremists? Guess the Palestinians are just flawed individuals. Nothing to do with right wing Israeli politicians taking direct steps to block peace and continue colonizing Palestinian land.

          This! So much this!! It’s as if others can’t grasp how being under siege by a foreign occupier might make you actually hate the foreign occupier

              They didn’t say Jews. Israel is the foreign occupier. There were Jews and Muslims and Christians there forever, the Europeans colonized it.

          Palestinians isn’t modern

          it is

          I wonder why growing up in an open air prison would lead you to fall in with extremists?

          this reasoning is flawed because even in the west bank palestinians are extreme and are continuing to become even more

        I voted for Joe Biden but don’t support him, because America won’t let me have another party. Do I support his policy with Israel?

        No, I do not.
