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.

    I’m impressed by Hamas having a documentation classification system and documentation process. Most terrorist organizations specifically don’t write things down because it makes it easier to stop them. So organized!

      They control the government of a large body of people. They’re very organized. Most terrorist organizations are. They have to be. They are “disadvantaged” with less resources. If you have a job you probably know the concept of having to “do more with less”

      Bruh putting the words top secret (aka don’t share it around) doesn’t mean they have a document classification system

      Way to miss the forest for the trees lmao

      You seriously thing in 20 goddamn 23 that people in Iran and Palestine don’t have access to maps and the mental wherewithal to tell their boys not to pass around the battle plans?

      They aren’t dumb, I don’t know why you’re so fucking set on framing the Palestinians as morons. Shame on you

        I think you miss the point. The point is that the documents are clearly fake. Hamas are not sitting there printing full color battle plans labeled top secret, gently folding them, and taking them to the front line.
