Looks like evidence has been published, and at least partially verified by OSINT groups (in the linked article)
Does anyone have sources on what kind of missiles Palestinian groups typically have access to? I think that would be very useful in evaluating the claims being made.
Well, there’s this: https://twitter.com/MyLordBebo/status/1714359458967466235
So there is a sound comparison of two videoclips with no information whatsoever when they were created and what they are showing.
They build their own.
I would count that as having access to them. But that by itself doesn’t answer the question of what exactly they’re able to build and if it’s big enough to do as much damage as we saw. Based on someone else’s link it looks like they do have missiles big enough to do catastrophic damage to a large building, especially if they crash right after takeoff and are full of propellant. That was a surprise to me. It’s not proof of anything but it does make Israel’s story seem more plausible.
Oh yeah, I’m not out here to weigh in at all about what happened.
Just weighing in with the answer to the very reasonable question of “where do the rockets come from?”
Here’s a graphic from this write up
Holy shit, those are much bigger than anything I had imagined them having.
Those are all rockets that claim to have been used. Notably most were caught trying to enter Gaza because they’re goddamn huge. 99% of everything fired from Gaza is going to be homemade, small and slow as fuck which is why iron dome even though it’s not particularly sophisticated compared to ciws of major nations.
