‘Shouldn’t have done that’: Israel critcised for Rafah airstrike

ASPI Senior Analyst Malcolm Davis says he doesn’t believe Israel should have sent airstrikes on Rafah. Gaza officials say at least 35 have been killed by Israel’s attack on the city. “I don’t think they should’ve done that,” Mr Davis told Sky News Australia. “I think that what the Israelis should’ve done on this occasion, is say yes the Hamas operatives are there but they are behind civilians and if we strike we are going to cause large civilian casualties so we find a different way to strike apart from bombing. “That may have required more risky operations such as ground force going into that camp, but I think that would’ve been preferable to putting bombs on that camp.”
