    Looking through the Re’im videos, there are a few notable things

    (cw: mild descriptions of war)
    • There is only one video that directly shows a member of Hamas killing a civilian, captured from a dashboard cam. The civilian is hiding behind a car and initially appears to be mistaken for dead, before being shot by a member of Hamas who notices his leg moving.
    • The remaining videos that show Hamas members shooting at (presumable) civilians are of cars driving towards or through them - one starts with the bodycam wearer indicating to stop and opening fire as the car continues. All of these videos start at or after the moment Hamas forces open fire, avoiding the lead-up.
    • There are a small number of Hamas videos of dead civilians, though none show them being killed. The majority of civilians in the Hamas videos are alive and apparently being taken hostage.
    • None of the videos are subtitled (would be very interested in a number of them being translated)
    • Some videos are completely missing audio depite being expected to have it.
    • One video is from a civilian during the attack; it shows injured and dead civilians clustered in a small building, and the phone is pointed outside but shows no visible attackers.
    • None of the videos from Hamas or captured during the attack show the burnt and dismembered bodies shown in the israeli “rescue forces” footage, or anything that would cause it.
    • The guy walking down the row of portapotties putting a bullet in each one like he’s gonna get an achievement for it is a little bit funny.

    So nothing new, basically, and certainly nothing proving the reported atrocities.
