🇵🇸 Nearly Half of All Israeli Munitions Dropped on Gaza are Imprecise 'Dumb' Bombs
Nearly half of the air-to-ground munitions Israel has dropped on the Gaza Strip are unguided or “dumb” bombs, CNN reported Thursday, citing a US intelligence assessment.
The report said Israel had used 29,000 air-to-ground munitions in its bombardment of Gaza, a total that does not include artillery shells and tank munitions that are also being fired on the Strip. The assessment from the Office of the Director of National Intelligence found 40-45% of the 29,000 munitions have been dumb bombs, and the rest have been precise guided munitions.
#UnguidedMunitions are less precise and are generally considered more of a threat to civilians, but Israel is also slaughtering civilians with precision-guided #munitions. A report from +972 Magazine revealed Israel is purposefully targeting civilian areas and launching strikes that might kill one Hamas commander, knowing hundreds of civilians will be killed.

🇵🇸 Psychological warfare': Israeli troops go on looting and vandalism spree across Gaza | Middle East Eye –
There is a long history of Israeli soldiers vandalising the homes of Palestinians they invade,” Laleh Khalili, an academic and researcher at the University of Exeter, told MEE.
“During the Nakba and successive wars of conquest in the historic lands of Palestine, in Lebanon in the early 1980s, and the Occupied Palestinian Territories during successive invasions, such behaviour has been rife,” she added.
“Israeli soldiers have left graffiti - often using quite violent, even genocidal, language; defecated in kitchens; looted valuable personal items; destroyed everyday objects and belongings; and taken trophy photographs of themselves.”

🇵🇸 Palestinian says soldiers sent him into Hamas tunnel strapped with bombs | Middle East Eye –
In a distressing testimony, one of Gaza's innocent detainees recounts being forced to wear an explosive vest and enter a tunnel, serving as a human shield for the Israeli army in Gaza.
"He forced me to wear the vest, which was equipped with IEDs and a GoPro camera, and secured a rope around my waist, guiding me down into the tunnel."
Hakim, who prefers to remain anonymous, further disclosed, "They didn't hesitate to send me down the tunnel. A 15-year-old boy was also forced into the same situation, and the boy who was detained with me survived and was released days later."

Heba is the daughter of a Palestinian woman, Hala Rashid Abd Al-Ati, who was killed by Israeli forces when they shot her as she was fleeing her neighborhood in Gaza.

The US government has lifted a two-month hold on shipments of 500-pound bombs for Israel, according to US officials who spoke with Reuters on 10 July.
In early May, the White House announced a hold on a shipment of 1,800 2,000-pound bombs and 1,700 500-pound bombs to Israel, citing “concerns” these would be used to flatten Gaza’s southernmost city of Rafah, where over a million Palestinians had taken refuge at the time.
On detonation, a 500-pound bomb can severely harm or kill anyone within a 20-meter radius, according to the Project on Defense Alternatives (PDA). A 2,000-pound bomb has a destruction radius of 35 metres.
