It was a mistake, may be grossly negligent, but you have to go a long way to call it deliberate.
The IDF’s rules of engagement are lax - recklessly so. I used to have to sit through and report on inquests, so many that the coroner’s description of an accident has remained with me to this day: ‘the unforeseen consequences of a deliberate act’. At some point, the consequences of the IDF’s lax RoI stop being unforseeable.
