<a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/new-york-times">The New York Times</a> has cut ties with a fixer in the <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/gaza">Gaza Strip</a> after his <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/facebook">Facebook</a> posts calling Jews “the children of dogs” and expressing support for the late Nazi tyrant Adolf Hitler resurfaced.
Fady Hanona has worked with multiple major news outlets to aid their reporting on the Arab-Israeli conflict. Hanona was listed as a contributor in six of the NYT’s eight stories written on the latest conflagration between Israel and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) terror group in the Gaza Strip.
The NYT apparently ended its relationship with Hanona on Friday, according to <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/ny-times-cuts-ties-with-gaza-freelancer-who-called-to-kill-jews-like-hitler-did/">The Times Of Israel</a>. The fixer has a history of making anti-Semitic statements, and the media watchdog <a href="https://honestreporting.com/the-fix-is-in-how-hitler-quoting-palestinians-are-warping-gaza-conflict-coverage/">Honest Reporting</a> uncovered a slew of Hanona’s Facebook posts in which he called for “killing” and “burning” Jews “like Hitler did,” according to translations of the posts preserved by Honest Reporting. The date of the post is unclear.

“I’m speaking for myself. I tell you I don’t accept a Jew or an Israeli or a Zionist or anyone else who speaks Hebrew,” Hanona wrote in another post, according to a translation by Honest Reporting. “I’m with killing them wherever they are – children, elderly, soldiers. I’m for killing the Jews wherever they are.”
Hanona posted other messages in 2013 and 2014 where he wrote repeatedly of a hatred for Jews and called for the destruction of the state of Israel. He also wanted a renewal of a “culture” of “fighting and killing” Israelis. The posts have since been deleted.
The NYT told <a href="https://www.algemeiner.com/2022/08/12/jews-are-sons-of-the-dogs-i-am-in-favor-of-killing-them-and-burning-them-like-hitler-did-said-gaza-based-new-york-times-reporter/">The Algemeiner</a> in a statement that the outlet is “no longer” working with Hanona. “The New York Times had worked with this freelance reporter only in recent weeks. We are no longer doing so,” a spokeswoman said.
Fighting between terrorist militants in Gaza and Israel flared up over a week ago after the Israeli military began conducting airstrikes in Gaza on August 5. Israel killed a PIJ commander, Tayseer Jabari, who ran the terror group’s operations in southern Gaza. The PIJ responded with a number of rocket strikes that sent Israelis rushing to bunkers for cover. The Iron Dome, Israel’s anti-missile defense system, shot down an estimated 97% of the PIJ rockets, according to <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/08/07/israel-gaza-jerusalem-rockets/">The Washington Post</a>.
The Israeli military reported striking 140 PIJ targets and “neutralizing” the terror group’s top commanders. The strikes also knocked out tunnels the terror group would use for attacks along with weapon storages and rocket launch sites.
The fighting resulted in at least 43 dead civilians and hundreds of wounded. The Israeli military said the vast majority of civilian casualties came from PIJ strikes after the terror group’s rockets landed inside Gaza.
“580 rockets fired by Islamic Jihad = 580 attempts to kill Israelis. The Iron Dome intercepted 97% of the rockets that directly threatened Israelis. But 120+ rockets landed in Gaza and killed innocent Palestinians. The Iron Dome protects Israel. Islamic Jihad endangers Gaza,” the Israel Defense Force said in a post.

TEL AVIV &#8212; The deaths of four children in a rocket strike near a mosque in northern <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/gaza-militants-fire-missiles-into-israel-as-middle-east-crisis-heightens">Gaza</a> Saturday amid <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/israel">Israel&#8217;s</a> Operation <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/breaking-your-time-is-up-israeli-forces-kill-terrorist-leader-attack-islamic-jihad-in-gaza">Breaking Dawn</a> were caused by a Palestinian rocket and not an Israeli airstrike, video shows.
The children&#8217;s deaths were among seven in a residence in the Jabaliya refugee camp, and prompted immediate finger-pointing by Hamas and Palestinian media. But <a href="https://twitter.com/IsraelMFA/status/1556155858219941891">videos circulating widely on social media</a> show that one of the many rockets fired by the Palestinian Islamic Jihad toward Israeli citizens misfired and detonated inside Gaza. 
“Tonight, Islamic Jihad terrorists fired a rocket towards Israel which fell short inside Gaza, hitting a Palestinian home in the Jabalia neighborhood and tragically killing at least four children,&#8221; Keren Hajioff, spokesperson for Israeli Prime Minister Yair Lapid, said in a <a href="https://www.gov.il/en/departments/news/islamic-jihad-rocket-kills-children-in-gaza-6-aug-2022">video statement</a>. &#8220;There is video documenting the entire thing. There was no Israeli activity in the Gaza Strip, in that area or at that time.” 
The Israeli military launched Operation Breaking Dawn on Friday to combat what Israeli commanders claimed was an immediate and genuine threat that the terror group posed to Israeli communities. The Israeli Air Force carried out multiple strikes in Gaza targeting the Palestinian Islamic Jihad terror group. However, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) officials insisted there had been no air strikes in the area at the time when the children were killed.
The IDF also released a video that showed a rocket failing to cross into Israel and crashing into the Jabalia refugee camp. Officials <a href="https://www.thejc.com/news/news/four-palestian-children-killed-after-misfiring-terror-rocket-hits-gaza-home-WCvlUgnkqDbxUsTI3DOZT">said</a> the clips “prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that this incident was not the result of an Israel Defense Forces’ strike. Israeli security forces did not strike in Jabaliya in the past few hours,&#8221; according to The Jewish Chronicle.
According to a detailed chronology from Israeli military officials, the blast in the refugee camp happened at around 9 pm in the northeastern part of Gaza. Israel had targeted only the northwestern part of the Strip at 6:51 pm.
Hajioff said the terrorist group must be held accountable for its actions.
“Islamic Jihad is killing Palestinian children in Gaza,&#8221; Hajioff said. &#8220;One in four rockets fired from Gaza towards Israel – lands inside the Gaza Strip. The world should be outraged at this terrorist group targeting innocent Israelis and killing innocent Gazans. Israel will continue to stand up to this vicious terrorist organization – which threatens Israelis and Palestinians alike.”

According to the IDF, some 200 of the 1,100 rockets that Palestinian Islamic Jihad has fired at Israel since the operation began have landed within Gaza. More innocent people in Gaza were killed by failed Islamic Jihad rockets than by Israeli airstrikes during Operation Breaking Dawn, <a href="https://www.jpost.com/breaking-news/article-714165">according</a> to Brig. Gen. Ran Kochav.
“All fire by the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization is a double war crime,” <a href="https://www.timesofisrael.com/israel-says-gaza-terrorists-failed-rocket-launch-kills-several-palestinian-children/">said</a> Elad Tene, head of the Prime Minister’s Office’s Public Diplomacy Directorate. “All fire by the Islamic Jihad terrorist organization is a double war crime: it is shooting at civilians, and using Gazan civilians as human shields. This incident is an example of Islamic Jihad harming the residents of Gaza. All harm to innocent civilians is tragic.”
Palestinian Islamic Jihad rocket fire and IDF airstrikes continued throughout Saturday and Sunday until a ceasefire took effect Sunday night.

Israeli Defense Minister Benny Gantz spoke to local authorities in the Israeli communities bordering Gaza, which have been targeted by Palestinian terrorists from Gaza for years.
“The situation in Israel’s south is tense,” Gantz stated, according to <a href="https://www.israelnationalnews.com/news/357697">Israel National News</a>. “I came here today, with the IDF’s Chief of the General Staff, head of the ISA, and General of the Southern Command, in order to conduct a situational assessment, and to prepare the actions that will remove the threat on this region, in accordance with the operational considerations of the State of Israel.”
“First, I would like to express my support for all of the communities bordering Gaza,” he continued. “The State of Israel has the duty and responsibility to defend and protect you. The citizens of Israel and the residents of Israel’s south in particular, have shown extraordinary resilience over the years. Our mission is to ensure that the tension ceases and that routine returns. To the southern communities — we stand with you and we will take all the measures required in order to defend you, in a manner that is both decisive and responsible, and that meets the operational considerations set to bring about the desired results.”
Then Gantz addressed the terrorist forces in Gaza:
<blockquote>To our enemies, and specifically to the leadership of Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, I would like to emphasize: Your time is up. The threat will be removed one way or another. The situation in which several terrorists hold the Gazan people hostage will backfire.  Those who harm the ability of 14,000 workers to make a living, who cause produce to sit and spoil at crossing points, and who lead to electricity and food shortages, hurt the people of Gaza first and foremost, and will have to take responsibility.</blockquote>
“I would like to address the international community, specifically the countries involved in Gaza: The State of Israel operates in a responsible and restrained manner, from a place of strength,” Gantz asserted. “We will operate with internal resilience and external strength in order to restore routine life in Israel’s south. We do not seek conflict, yet we will not hesitate to defend our citizens, if required. The State of Israel and the IDF will continue its operations, knowing the responsibility we bear on our shoulders — to defend the communities and citizens of Israel’s south. And to defend the citizens of the entire State of Israel.”
