Israel used that claim for decades and to this day haven't manged to provide even a single piece of evidence. Using civilians as human shields is Israel's tactic.
The Israeli military has used Palestinians as human shields in Gaza, soldier and former detainees say
Enter the following into Google, and chose the sources you trust the most:
Gaza RPG from hospital Gaza rocket launcher from masque Gaza rocket launch school Gaza weapon stash in child bed Gaza tunnel entry home
Hamas is using human shield where ever they can. Pictures of dead children are their weapon.
You mean those 140p videos from multi-billion dollar Israeli surveillance system. Yeah, sorry I don't see apartheid government as a valid source. It's like saying Russia's government is a trustworthy source.
So you trust the islamofascistic Hamas, that has been proven to lie, instead?
The same Hamas that throw the members of the other party off roof tops ?
The same Hamas that broke every ceasefire agreement?
Some of the Israeli claims were also confirmed by other sources. Hamas' claims were only confirmed by twitter.
Stop being so naive
No, I just don't trust Israeli apartheid government who are proven to lie.
Not unique to Hamas. Israel investigates after its soldiers filmed throwing bodies off roof
That is just false. Do some reading.
Yeah, which ones? They lie so much that it's possible something once a blue moon that is true gets missed.
Yes, UN verified claims are at the same level as Twitter...
What do you mean no evidence? Do you have seen any video where Hamas is wearing uniforms to identify as combatants? Or is it random civilian clothing? There are more than enough videos of them and others showing them in civilian clothes. So once one of them dies, who is going to identify them as civilian and who as combatants? So you see the problem?
Also, given the videos of them shooting out of hospitals, hiding hostages with families, ... how are they not using human shields? What evidence do you want if that is not sufficient?
By evidence, I mean any source that is not from Israeli government. They don't allow independent journalist to verify information and when Palestinians try to report from inside West Bank or Gaza they get shot in the head from Israeli snipers or a bomb is dropped on them.
Do you believe everything Russia's government is saying about their "special military operation" in Ukraine or do you rely on independent sources?
Is Hamas themselves also not a reasonable source? Like do you even watch their propaganda? It really seems like you absolutely do not?
It seems like you answered your own questions.
What?
Let me spell it out for you.
Propaganda can't be a reasonable or independent source as by definition it has an agenda. So be it Hamas, Israel, US, Ukraine, or Russia or whoever, their propaganda is not independent sources...
Mate, they upload videos of themselves doing these things. So do others. You have no idea what you are talking about, that is why you focus on a single word to dismiss everything I said. They also do not wear any form of identification in their propaganda.
