Original Note:
Israel's military is not decimating Rafah. The have so far only undertaken limited operations in the area and claimed only 20 Hamas members have been killed. Decimating implies the killing of 10% of the population, which has been estimated at 1,000,000+ https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimation_(punishment) https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2024/5/7/israel-takes-control-of-rafah-crossing-gazas-lifeline-whats-going-on
