Multiple aid workers were killed after a bus was attacked in Gaza on Wednesday night, according to a US-backed humanitarian aid organization which accused Hamas of carrying out the assault.

“We are still gathering facts, but what we know is devastating: there are at least five fatalities, multiple injuries, and fear that some of our team members may have been taken hostage,” GHF said in a statement.

The group was en route to a distribution center in the area west of Khan Younis, GHF said, adding further details would be provided once they became known.

    And we know that Israel was recently working with ISIS affiliates within Gaza to sew discontent about Hamas. This is likely something tied to the IOF.

        I wonder if the complexity could be alleviated by the Zionists ceasing their decades-long genocide of the people of Palestine, ceasing the occupation, pursuing a two-state solution, and supporting a right of return.

        Just a thought.

        Hamas is monster fed by Netanyahu while he starved all better alternatives. It’s complex, but the fundamental answer is still Zionist imperialists bad.
