Caught on camera: Gaza terrorist uses child to move weapons

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) shared a video on Sunday depicting a terrorist utilizing a child to transport weapons into a residential building in central Gaza. The objective was to deter the military from launching an attack on the targeted location. According to the IDF, the terrorist exploited the child as a human shield to carry out the weapons transfer, with the intent of preventing any IDF strikes and thwarting their efforts to transfer the weapons.

Upon recognizing the presence of a child, the IDF chose not to carry out any strikes against the terrorist. The military described the incident as an example of terrorist organizations systematically exploiting children for their purposes, in clear violation of international law.
