(Ynet News) Nahum Barnea - "In the last five years, Gaza has reinforced and armed itself," an IDF commander said. "We went to the hospital in Beit Hanoun and found 12 empty beds and underneath an ammunition warehouse. The yard of an agricultural school for girls in Beit Hanoun was being used for rocket launches. There was a pneumatic system that could raise 24 Grad launchers to the surface." "The civilians want to leave, and Hamas pins them in their homes at gunpoint....The area around a school in Beit Hanoun had booby-trapped houses. Every house was suspicious. One soldier returned fire at a sniper in a window - and the whole house exploded in on its inhabitants. This has happened with several buildings."
