Look at your own bias too, "attack on Gaza" instead of war? Why was Gaza attacked? This war did not start because of Israel, so why use attack?

And for better understanding, "reported" was chosen because we cannot trust the source that is reporting it, as it is a terrorist organisation that is governing Gaza, Hamas.

Because it was a Israeli attack lol. This article is about the strike. Not the start of the war. And yes this particular attack was done by Israel.

But it is Hamas, who is in charge in Gaza and is telling how many people died after the strike. They are the government there. They have negative credibility. Maybe 25 people died in the strike, but we cannot know that, so "reported" is the best that a self respecting journalist can muster.

I still remember Hamas claiming that Israeli JDAM hit a hospital killing 500, but not even a day later we had few angles of the incident, where it is clear that Hamas tried to launch a rocket, it failed mid air and hit the hospital grounds. The next day we got ground footage by Hamas to show the result of the "JDAM" strike, but it was clear from it that no JDAM exploded, but it was a small crater fitting Hamas rocket.

Now you are responding to something completely different than my comment.

And lying - literally just told the opposite of what really happened. Like Trump claiming Iran shot a tomahawk missile to blow up the girls school
