There must have been a tragic and bizarre set of circumstances to lead to this. The IDF has assured us that they’re taking great measures to avoid civilian casualties, and their actions are fully legal and justified. Those hostages must have escaped and taken up arms and attacked the Israeli soldiers by mistake, because otherwise they couldn’t possibly have been mistaken for combatants. I’m just flabbergasted, no one could have foreseen something like this happening. It’s really shocking.
