There have been some disturbing videos emerging in the current Gaza conflict, but Indian TV network NDTV captured unbelievable footage of Islamic militants preparing to launch a rocket at Israel in a densely-populated civilian area.
The NDTV reporter spotted a blue tent being set up, with three people walking in and out of it. The next day, there was a rocket fired from that exact spot where he had spotted the tent. Its important to note that this was being worked on in a residential area full of hotels.
The rocket was fired shortly prior to the 72-hour ceasefire and is being billed by NDTV as an exclusive look into how Hamas assembles and fires rockets.
Tell me again how they don't use civilians as shields.
