- Israel soldiers say they found dead babies at a kibbutz near the Israel-Gaza border.
- The IDF told Insider that some had been decapitated.
- The kibbutz was attacked by Hamas on Saturday, and there was fighting there into Sunday.
A spokesperson for the Israel Defense Forces told Insider on Tuesday that its soldiers found the decapitated corpses of babies at Kfar Aza, a kibbutz near Gaza.
The spokesperson, Major Nir Dinar, did not say how many babies’ bodies had been found, nor how many had been beheaded.
There hasn’t been independent confirmation of what was found, though other Israeli media have reported the same claim and attributed it to soldiers.
The spokesperson told Insider: “These people are animals. They have butchered women and children in worse ways than ISIS.”
Reports started to emerge on Tuesday that Israeli soldiers had made the grisly discoveries at the self-sustaining rural community near Gaza.
The kibbutz was attacked by Hamas militants on Saturday, with fighting continuing there into Sunday.
Nicole Zedek, reporting for the Israeli news station, i24News, said: “Babies, their heads cut off, that’s what they [the soldiers] said.”
I wonder if the folks supporting Hamas yesterday will chime in here, too.
I mean guys, what’s a few baby decapitations in the way of oppression? De-escalation?! No, clearly decapitating babies is the righteous path. /s
To be clear, I think Israel needs to deescalate as well.
Remember: Truth is always the first casualty in an armed conflict. Take everything you read about the situation with a grain of salt.
Jam your head in the sand and support terrorism?
It’s not supporting terrorism. Citizens should not be judged by their worst counterparts. Otherwise, we’d fucking burn America to the ground because Trump ran us deep into nazi territory.
I mean everyone saying ignore the reports and that Hamas would never do anything that bad
We’ve seen what Hamas will do already, and this is also being reported by multiple sources

If you’re against de-escalation, I don’t give a fuck what you think. Full stop.
Think I made myself plenty clear.

I am not arguing. I have stated a case quite clearly: both sides de-escalating is best for all.
I have stated that I don’t care what someone has to say about the situation if that is not how they also feel.
Again, sorry you’re struggling to parse.

BTW I think the point is that Hamas is a reaction to the israeli oppression, not that it should be supported. Obviously this is disgusting behavior.
Yes I understand.
I didn’t support the US attacking Iraq. I don’t support Hamas attacking Israel.
An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind.
What’s a few decapitated baby’s between frinds
Neither country deseves to exist anymore.
Definitely the worst take I’ve seen so far.
Just nuke the area to all hell, so no one can bitch and moan about who gets what because there is nothing to fight over.
