@pvonhellermannn But, it sounds from US statements and witness statements and visual evidence like Israel may have used the military base they've constructed at the seaside terminus of the Netzarim corridor during the operation, evacuated the hostages by boat rather than via the corridor, which has come under recent heavy attack, and may have disguised their forces as an aid shipment. This imperils legitimate aid operations in the area, not that Israel cares about that one bit.
