Israel set up a miiltary base ~2 miles from the Ker Shalom crossing to prepare for their Rafah Genocide.

Hamas launched a rocket attack on it. Israel used that as pretext to close the Ker Shalom crossing to humanitarian aid.

Mainstream Western propaganda outlets such as Reuters, NYT and BBC are now laundering the lies that Hamas attacked soldiers at the crossing instead of a military base.

I don’t see evidence that Hamas attacked the base, either. Is a hole in a tent and a picture of a tank that could be taken anywhere there is sand supposed to be evidence?

Read the highlighted text in the original post. Top left image.

What are the soldiers doing in this sentence? The last two lines to be specific.

From this Haaretz article

I don’t think there’s a claim that the base itself was attacked, but instead that soldiers that were stationed at that base (which was a staging area for an invasion of Rafah) were attacked. The original Israeli source says that the soldiers were “near” the crossing. This seems like a far cry from the crossing itself being attacked, which is what the US articles claim or at least imply.
