Here's what to know Noa Argamani, 26; Almog Meir Jan, 22; Andrey Kozlov, 27; and Shlomi Ziv, 41, “are in good medical condition” and have been transferred to a hospital for further medical examinations, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said. They were taken hostage from the Nova music festival during the Hamas attacks on Oct. 7.
The Gaza Health Ministry spokesman accused Israel of attacking civilians and committing a “massacre” in Nuseirat. The IDF acknowledged the large death toll and blamed Hamas for any civilian casualties, saying the militant group holds hostages in residential areas.

A Israeli soldiers used a humanitarian aid truck & a civilian car to sneak into central Gaza & execute today's operation that butchered over 215 Gazans & released 4 hostages.
They then escaped through Biden's "humanitarian pier", knowing it won't be targeted by Hamas🧵
A massacre survivor says the aid truck stopped, it was full of clothes & cutlery.
10 IDF soldiers exited the truck & sprayed him with 3 bullets, then Israel began to intensely bomb the area with "fire belts" (i.e. simultaneously dropping a large amount of bombs indiscriminately)
Israeli soldiers who stormed central Gaza fled towards Biden's $320 million humanitarian pier & were evacuated from there.
It's likely they sneaked into central Gaza from the pier as well. video clips at link

nope, was going to pass on the Cradle due to "medium Credibility" until others noticed the same things it posted on the site, as poor sourced and one sided. Since others inquired...happy to help. Their opinions seem to be validated.
and, daily express...says "mixed factual" credibility.
it's borderline.
But, thanks for paying attention :) Head rent due on the 1st.
But if it makes ya happy to play "gotcha" go for it. I'll keep posting reviews of crappy sources.

here is a different version of the events from AP...your source is not reliable imo...
Aid is delivered to Gaza from newly repaired US-built pier, US official says By ELLEN KNICKMEYER and TARA COPP, Associated Press Updated June 8, 2024 3:57 p.m.
WASHINGTON (AP) — Badly needed aid has been delivered to Gaza from a newly repaired American-built pier, a U.S. official said Saturday, following problems that had plagued the effort to bring supplies to Palestinians by sea.
The pier constructed by the American military was only operational for about a week before it was blown apart in high winds and heavy seas on May 25. The damaged section was reconnected to the beach in Gaza on Friday after undergoing repairs at an Israeli port.
Crews delivered about 1.1 million pounds (492 metric tons) of humanitarian aid to Gaza via the pier on Saturday, the U.S. official said. They spoke on condition of anonymity ahead of an official announcement of the delivery.
It came the same day that Israel mounted a heavy air and ground assault that rescued four hostages, who had been taken by Hamas during the Oct. 7 assault that launched the war in Gaza. At least 210 Palestinians, including children, were killed, a Gaza health official said.
It brings back online one way to get desperately needed food and other emergency supplies to Palestinians trapped by the eight-month-old Israel-Hamas war. Israeli restrictions on land crossings, and fighting, have greatly limited the flow of food and other vital supplies into the territory.
The damage to the pier was the latest stumbling block for the project and the persistent struggle to get food to starving Palestinians. Three U.S. service members were injured, one critically, and four vessels were beached due to heavy seas.
Early efforts to get aid from the pier into the Gaza Strip were disrupted as crowds overran a convoy of trucks that aid agencies were using to transport the food, stripping the cargo from many of them before they could reach a U.N. warehouse. Officials responded by altering the travel routes, and aid began reaching those in need.
Vice Adm. Brad Cooper, deputy commander of U.S. Central Command, told reporters on Friday that the lessons learned from that initial week of operations made him confident greater amounts of aid could be delivered now.
He said the goal was to get to 1 million pounds (500 tons or 450 metric tons) of food and other supplies moving through the pier into Gaza every two days. Before the causeway broke apart in the storm, more than 1,100 tons (1,000 metric tons) of aid were delivered, Pentagon officials said.
Relief agencies have pressed Israel to reopen land routes that could bring in all the needed aid. Israel says it has allowed hundreds of trucks to enter through a southern checkpoint and pointed the finger at the U.N. for not distributing aid. The U.N. says it is often unable to retrieve the aid because of the security situation.
U.N. agencies have warned that over 1 million Palestinians in Gaza could experience the highest level of starvation by the middle of next month if hostilities continue.
President Joe Biden’s administration has said from the start that the pier wasn’t meant to be a total solution and that any amount of aid helps.
Biden, a Democrat, announced his plan for the U.S. military to build a pier during his State of the Union address in early March, and the military said it would take about 60 days to get it installed and operational. It took a bit longer than planned, with the first trucks carrying aid for the Gaza Strip rolling down the pier on May 17.
The initial cost was estimated at $320 million, but the Pentagon said this past week that the price had dropped to $230 million, due to contributions from Britain and because the cost of contracting trucks and other equipment was less than expected.

If innocents were wrapped around hostages then blame Hamas, the ones that tied them to that situation, since you must blame someone.
Blame Netanyahu for the war taking so long, for mismanaging a hapless population, for denying food and housing to those who only wanted peace, that's a crime against humanity. Blame Netanyahu for being corrupt as some Israelis say.
But don't blame Netanyahu, not for capitulating to Hamas for unreasonable demands from an organization that kept their own population ignorant, hungry, in poverty and as buffer to munitions and war.
Hamas refused the ceasefire offers many times, and that offer they accepted, and Egypt supposedly sabotaged, went to the last day, hour. So, I'm not going to list the them all, and you didn't offer a *valid* link, so I cannot discuss it with you.
Hamas is in bunkers like Hitler, while their people and it's former territory are in ruins as Hitler left Berlin, Munich, Dresden and more. Hitler at least killed himself and the war ended. It's time for Hamas to surrender.

Jeffrey St. Clair, CounterPunch reposted Khaled Elgindy@elgindy_
Not a word from the White House about the 246 Palestinians massacred. So cheap are Palestinian lives.
link Statement from National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan on the Israeli Hostage Rescue Operation HOME BRIEFING ROOM STATEMENTS AND RELEASES Today, Israeli security forces conducted a successful operation to rescue four hostages from the grips of Hamas in Gaza. All four were taken from the Nova Music Festival on October 7, and Hamas filmed the horrific abduction of Ms. Argamani for the world to see. Now they are safe and reunited with their families. We commend the work of the Israeli security services that conducted this daring operation.
The United States is supporting all efforts to secure the release of hostages still held by Hamas, including American citizens. This includes through ongoing negotiations or other means. The hostage release and ceasefire deal that is now on the table would secure the release of all the remaining hostages together with security assurances for Israel and relief for the innocent civilians in Gaza. This deal has the full backing of the United States and has been endorsed by countries from around the world, including the G7, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Egypt, UAE, and Qatar, as well as the sixteen countries with their citizens still being held by Hamas. They all must be released — now.

Those 246 Palestinian lives were Hamas and others.
Hamas wrapped Palestinians around the munitions and soldiers at the UN compound. Hamas covered tunnels with schools and hospitals, they buried tunnels of missiles and threatened death to the hungry if they took food from any but their hands.
All hostages should be released and Hamas should surrender, let them go and give their own people peace.

Entebbe was at an airport, not in the middle of an overcrowded apartment complex.
And still Hamas doesn't care how many are killed? You complain about the white house when Hamas hasn't hit their 100,000 quota Sinwar said would not be too many.
Amazing.
