I'm surprised Israel is that discerning.

From what I can tell, they're killing people based on those people being inside the borders of Gaza.

I don't think those 13,000+ children were all using Whatsapp. The ones that couldn't read or write probably didn't find it especially useful.

I just assumed Israel was killing people based on those people's proximity to exploding israeli ordnance

no, no, they use ai to optimize for kill count.

well yes but you could create accounts for them after they died, and use a dead Hezbollah guys phone to invite them to whatsapp group. or just any phone. whichever.

you know, to be sure they were enemy combatants.

The only time they recognise those borders is when the command the war crimes units to enter.

I think they recognize them every time they want to stop a Palestinian from leaving.
