They are still finding bodies in the neighbourhoods near Gaza.

Recovery teams on Wednesday pulled a woman’s body from the rubble in Kibbutz Be’eri. She was naked, her feet bound with metal wire.

One of the team said the bodies of more than 20 children had been found nearby, tied together and burned.

Even experienced workers are struggling: deaths like this are enough to break the living.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


Cats provide the only movement - sliding between bright toys strewn across gardens, the collapsed rooves, the charred gaping skeletons of people’s homes.

A neighbour identified Danny’s body on the morning after the attack, but the family are still waiting for official confirmation that he is dead.

His half-brother, Lior Peri, was expecting him back in Tel Aviv the day before, but Danny decided to stay on an extra night.

Lior received a text message on Saturday morning, as the attack unfolded, saying: “S**t, big balagan [chaos] in the kibbutz.”

With hundreds of thousands of troops now ranged along the border, Israel is eyeing the next stage of this war - a major offensive operation inside Gaza, aimed at destroying Hamas.

The families of Israel’s hostages and missing are still frozen in the hours after the attack, left without answers, and caught between two different traumas: their nation’s and their own.


The original article contains 738 words, the summary contains 151 words. Saved 80%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

Is this supposed to distract me from the bombing of churches and children? I can haz multitasking.

It’s possible they are both awful, but individually yes this report is rough to read.

It’s disgusting that as a result of this article, you still feel the need to come here and say Israel is bad.

Are they not? They have killed more innocents (or at least as far as we know they had prior to this current conflict). Israel isn’t “bad” but it’s government is.

This is a report from the region about the afteath of an unprovoked raid by Hamas against her neighbor. This is what Hamas chose and intended to happen and it’s nominally the justification for the bombs going off in Gaza right now.

Yes unprovoked. The event that was supposed to justify this action (apparently sacrificing a goat somewhere) never happened.

“Nominally” is doing the heavy lifting.

You must be proud of your prescience. Now ask yourself why?

  • Rule 7: We didn’t USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you’re posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
