Throughout the day, Israeli officials issued multiple statements
with little information in them, indicating a lack of clarity
within the military about the attack but designed to address
widespread outrage.
Netanyahu then described the attack as a rCLtragic mistakerCY.
However, the statement does little to address the apparent
"double-tap" nature of the attack. The fact that most of those who
were killed were struck by the second attack at precisely the same
location around 10 minutes later appears clearly intentional.
