It is a war. a WAR.
And NO, Israel does not go around with the intention of killing innocent civilians. It follows the Geneva Convention to a T.
Civilians are being used as human shields and even shot at if they try to move south by Hamas.
I cannot imagine that Israel said that it killed 700 Gaza civilians, or which source you got that.
Israel is not bombing the south. It is bombing Hamas sites which are firing missiles towards Israel from Kahn Younis, etc.
I follow on a daily basis and post on my thread every updates:
War is horrible. Always. It’s also usually not so black and white. There are usually two sides to most conflicts. Usually, but not always. No one with a moral compass would have sided with the Nazis in WWII. No one would have asked for a ceasefire or asked how many innocent Germans were...

This is part of what The IDF has been doing in Gaza so far:
I am sorry but, you can choose to believe the sources which are telling you what Hamas is telling the world, or you may follow what is actually happening.
