Many and varied calls for a “cease fire” in Gaza.
What was the situation on the sixth of October in Southern Israel?
Was that not a “cease fire” that was apparently not going to work the next day.
Was the Hamas attack designed to limit ‘civilian casualties, particularly at the “Peace Concert”.

It could be suggested any “Cease Fire” will only apply to the IDF.

Does the allegation a Headquarters for Hamas was in a basement of a Hospital not indicate a degree of the immense problem facing the IDF.

Oh and by the way in passing was the IDF soldier “released ” or “freed”, there is a difference.
