Israel's army says a total of 21 soldiers have been killed in an attack in central Gaza, making it the largest single loss of life for the military since the war began.

On Monday, Israeli reservists were preparing explosives to demolish two buildings in central Gaza on when a militant fired a rocket-propelled grenade at a tank nearby. The blast triggered the explosives, causing both two-story buildings to collapse on the soldiers inside.

    To be fair this isn’t just a Palestinian retaliation… It’s a Hamas retaliation. Even most Palestinians don’t want Hamas to be in charge. They’re stuck in the middle and suffer the most while extremist Israel and extremist terrorist group Hamas play war.

      Yes, I suspect the majority of Palestinians want peace, but Israel is preventing that, when they oppose the 2 state solution. A peace where the Gaza Strip is still controlled by Israel is not really peace, but a prison.
