Palestinian propaganda accuses Israel of a horrible massacre, killing 6 Palestinian children.
They're hiding the fact that the Islamic Jihad is responsible for their death, following a failed rocket launch that landed in Jabaliya. See attached video.

Additional proof in thread👇
More proof: a Gazan journalist notes at 21:09, right after the 21:00 barrage and even before the "Israeli airstrike" was reported, that a failed rocket launch hit a residential neighborhood in Jabaliya. Now Palestinians are asking him to delete it.
A picture of the six victims. Palestinian propaganda is preparing their bodies for a heartbreaking photo to push on international media, and with it to try and stick the blame onto Israel.
