And yes, in Gaza, a 13-year old boy is in fact a military-aged man. In practice, even younger boys are taught to operate weapons systems.
As to this correction from Hamas, of course it comes too late, as the damage has already been done. Eighteen months of portraying Israel as child killers will not be undone now by a quiet notification which the UN, BBC, and CNN will happily ignore.
Previously, Hamas said that 70% of the deaths were women and children. So it turns out their lies were an exact inversion of the truth.
