At least 11 people have been injured after projectiles were reportedly fired from Lebanon into Majdal Shams, Golan Heights, on Saturday, according to Israel.
From the photos on twitter, it looks like it hit the only soccer field in town, landing between the field and the playground next to it. Hezbollah first claimed the attack, but now that there are 10 kids dead, and another several dozen kids injured they've backpedaled on it.
UPDATE: 10 dead, 6 in critical, 3 moderate, 4 light, and several dozen unadmitted injured people
Uh-oh, time to kill 15,000 more civilians
Oh you try to exterminate an entire ethnic group and they refuse to die peacefully, what ignominy
Sorry, kids. It looks like you were born in the wrong country to deserve any sympathy or basic human decency.
What a monster.
Do you say the same thing when bombs fall on Palestinian hospitals?? I'm not happy about this, but I'm not happy about killing another 50,000 innocent people to avenge them.
That's a straw man though. They didn't say anything about the children. There's children all over in the region being killed for no good reason. But people definitely don't have a reason to have sympathy for the state of Israel on this as a whole.
They were born in a place where they can go to bunkers and remain safe until their military can mow down the other place fully including the children who unfortunately don't have the biggest military backing them up.
Reports say hezbollah has never claimed this attack, when did they claim it? Normally when hezbollah strikes somewhere they always take credit.
It was also in an area with a mostly druze arab population which does not serve in the idf. Hezbollah has no reason to strike there.
This has many indications of a false flag.
Druze serve in the IDF.
Edit: Although it's true that Druze in the Golan are different than the rest of the Druze in Israel, in that some of them don't serve.
Speaking with reporters at Majdal Shams, Israeli military spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari said that forensics showed the rocket was an Iranian-made Falaq-1.
Hezbollah had earlier announced firing a Falaq-1 missile on Saturday, saying it had targeted an Israeli military headquarters.
More likely it was a rocket that failed / went off course.
All kids lives matter.
THIS attack JUSTIFIES killing 100000 MORE Children!
Terrible. They have been raining down rockets in Israel since Oct. 8 and no one talks about it. There are 200,000 internally displaced Israelis and sometimes it feels like no one cares.
Both the escalation on the southern Lebanon border and the resulting displacement have received a lot of media coverage. Hezbollah has kept saying that this is to keep IDF from being all focused on Gaza and that they would stop if a ceasefire is reached. Until about three month ago both Israel and Hezbollah have been trying to keep the level of escalation low.
This has changes as Israel attacked Beirut and threatened to turn it into "another Gaza" and boasting about how they could destroy all of Lebanon. Netanyahus government has aimed to escalate the war there, to draw in the US and other western allies.
Now whether we will see the full escalation now remains to be seen. Hezbollah is a whole different league compared to Hamas in terms of weapons and fighters.
