HOW NICE! U.S. Tells Israel to Use Smaller Bombs in Gaza
Blinken pushes for "humanitarian pause" so Israel could better prepare for ground invasion, report says
The U.S., which is not necessarily the country you want to consult about limiting civilian casualties, gave Israel a list of ideas on how it can limit the amount of innocent Palestinians it blows up during bombing campaigns, and one of the ideas was smaller bombs.
The New York Times reported that U.S. officials told the Israelis “that they could reduce civilian casualties if they improved how they targeted Hamas leaders, gathered more intelligence on Hamas command and control networks before launching strikes, used smaller bombs to collapse the tunnel network and employed their ground forces to separate civilian population centers from where the militants are concentrated.”
