      Didn’t Israel say that they were posting areas that Gazans should be evacuating on Xitter and?Facebook, and that it was up to the Gazans to keep checking those sites and evacuate when needed, and that Israel couldn’t be responsible for anyone who didn’t follow evacuation orders? And now it turns out that Gazans can’t read the orders anyway (and those that evacuate to Israeli-designated “safe” areas get bombed anyway)?

        I mean, that’s better than round 1 when they told the civilians where to move to and then bombed that position. At least this way they’re more dispersed…?

      It’s probably more to do with cutting off communications for Hamas. Photos and videos are going to get out. Whether it’s today, tomorrow, or the next day isn’t going to change public reaction much.

    Has there been any news about how Israel’s able cut service in Gaza? I assumed at first they were bombing/sabotaging infrastructure but they seem to be able to turn service on and off at will like they’re flipping a switch.
