Hamas and Israel fight – level 1
17-05-2021 15:00
In Gaza, a man sees a building fall down. He says that an Israeli plane shoots at it. He sees many women and children who leave the building. He says they are not soldiers.
A reporter talks about the situation. He says that Israeli planes are bombing places in Gaza. They are doing this because militants shoot rockets at Israel.
He says that people are worried. They hope that Israel and militants from Hamas can agree to stop the fight.
Israel says that it is shooting at military buildings where militants hide. It says that military buildings are in areas where normal people live.
Difficult words: militant (a soldier who is not in the government), rocket (a very large bullet), military (connected with soldiers).
You can watch the original video in the Level 3 section.
