TL;DR Summary

An analysis by The New York Times reveals that Israel used 2,000-pound bombs, the second-largest in its arsenal, in an airstrike on the densely populated area of Jabaliya. The deployment of such bombs in a civilian-packed area has raised concerns about human rights violations. While 83 countries, including the U.S., have pledged not to use such explosive weapons in crowded civilian areas, Israel has not signed the declaration. The bombs caused significant damage, creating large craters and resulting in dozens of civilian deaths and hundreds of injuries.
