Original Note:
The October 7 attacks prominently targeted a music festival which is not a legitimate military target and so is against the laws of armed conflict. Nearly three times as many civilians were killed as Israeli soldiers. Many of the dead were burned alive and mutilated. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/show/survivors-rescuers-in-hamas-music-festival-attack-recount-the-days-horrors https://hhi.harvard.edu/publications/legitimate-targets-attacks-under-international-humanitarian-law https://www.nytimes.com/live/2023/11/10/world/israel-hamas-war-gaza-news
