Maps and documents recovered from the bodies of Hamas attackers reveal a coordinated plan to target children and take hostages inside an Israeli village near Gaza.

Documents exclusively obtained by NBC News show that Hamas created detailed plans to target elementary schools and a youth center in the Israeli kibbutz of Kfar Sa’ad, to “kill as many people as possible,” seize hostages and quickly move them into the Gaza Strip.

The attack plans, which are labeled “top secret” in Arabic, appear to be orders for two highly trained Hamas units to surround and infiltrate villages and target places where civilians, including children, gather. Israeli authorities are still determining the death toll in Kfar Sa’ad.

    If you really think resistance fighters were carrying around a bunch of stapled word documents labelled ‘TOP SECRET’ like some TV villains then I have 10 bridges to sell you. Insane levels of deception here

      The union won Gettysburg because they bagged a guy who was carrying Robert E. Lee’s secret plans wrapped around cigars, it’s not that crazy

      Why is it crazy that they had a plan? If the words top secret did not occur would you change your stance because that’s literally the only thing you pointed out.

      Playing devils advocate here, I could see why they would put such a thing on an upcoming plan of attack. Obviously the IDF is not trustworthy but the words top secret are not the issue here lmao

        It’s the idea that there’s a pristine copy of a Big Evil Secret Plan that the IDF managed to loot off a random corpse that’s unbelievable

        They’re just, like, carrying it? They need a reminder of what their BESP is at all times?
