Only, why bother, if the object was to take hostages and use them to bargain for the release of the thousands of Hamas fighters held in Israeli prisons? If they had hostages, why waste their ammunition on destroying the cars? Live hostages, prisoners, have value; dead ones don't.
It seems like the Israeli military massively overreacted and fired on anything that move in a frenzy or panic, and that many of the civilians and other prisoners were killed in the crossfire.
All that doesn't even take into account the damage to buildings, which once again looks like it's the result of heavy weapons, tanks or missiles; not the small-arms Hamas had at their disposal.
Once again, it's telling that the western media is extremely reluctant to question, analyse, invetigate or criticise the Israeli version of what actually happened on Oct 7th, despite questions being asked in the Israeli press.
