Terror organizations in Gaza use children for terrorist purposes

According to the IDF, troops operating in central Gaza observed a terrorist using a child to carry weapons into a residential building.

The IDF said the child was used as a human shield in an attempt to prevent Israeli forces from striking and intercepting the weapons transfer.

The military described the incident as another example of terrorist organizations exploiting children for terrorist purposes and as a violation of international law.

The IDF said it would continue to act against immediate threats in the area of the Yellow Line.
