The misinformation being that the destruction was all caused by Hamas and the victims were all Jewish citizens at the hands of Hamas.

While there is coverage of the Israeli response in Gaza, there’s still not much coverage that a lot of the death and destruction during the original attack was actually by IDF soldiers with no defined targets responding to an invisible threat.

This doesn’t mean that Hamas wasn’t killing people too, but their main goal seemed to be to break out and take hostages, not break out and kill anyone they saw.
