Another 40 people were injured in the strike, which was the deadliest against Israel since the Oct. 7 Hamas terror attack. Pro-Israel Rep. Ritchie Torres also questioned the paper’s decision to frame Israel as the “aggressor” underneath an image of a child killed by the terror group. The horrific attack on the Golan Heights took place as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was concluding his visit to Washington, DC.
Local officials in Majdal Shams also supposedly requested that government officials not attend the children’s funerals – while those who did attend were jeered at by the mourners. Druze leaders in Lebanon, Syria, and Israel criticized what they viewed as the Israeli government’s attempt to drive a wedge between the close-knit community in the aftermath of the attack.
