Nearly half of the air-to-ground munitions that Israel has used in Gaza in its war with Hamas since October 7 have been unguided, otherwise known as “dumb bombs,” according to a new US intelligence assessment.

      Israel has shitload of bombs available. But since Gaza is a completely uncontested airspace(therefore israeli planes can fly and drop dumb bombs safely) and they dont give a fuck about the palestinians, it is cheaper to use dumb bombs instead of guided.

    I wish we knew more about where exactly these reports are coming from. I don’t trust Hamas or Israel in their reporting on the matter. Al Jazeera has Hamas ties and our American government has Israel ties so I’m skeptical of them too. Israel is being far too aggressive but Hamas isn’t exactly the most honest adversary. What a mess.

      These reports are coming from US intelligence assessment and it is being reported by CNN. These are not pro-Hamas sources.
