(AFP) Gael Branchereau - Faced with growing criticism, Israeli air force officers on Monday defended their actions in war against Hamas. "All the bombs we use are high-precision bombs," an officer told reporters. "We don't need the Americans to understand we want to limit casualties. We did not need to change our principles," saying Israeli forces had aimed at limiting civilian casualties "from the beginning." A report by Washington's Director of National Intelligence said that nearly half of munitions dropped by Israeli aircraft on Gaza were "dumb" bombs - unguided munitions with limited accuracy. The Israeli officer said that was inaccurate. "There (are) no dumb bombs" used in the current war. "All the bombs have accurate (targets), some of them by GPS, some of them by cameras, some of them by computers." Israel insists Hamas is to blame for mass civilian casualties, accusing the group of using innocent Palestinians as "human shields" and operating out of hospitals, schools and UN facilities. "For Hamas, the deaths of civilians is a strategy," IDF spokesman Daniel Hagari said Monday. "For us, it's a tragedy." 2023-12-20 00:00:00Full Article
