Doing Laundry in the Heat of Battle?

One of our members notes that the news services, including The Post, keep spreading the unlikely story of two young Palestinians in Gaza getting shot while doing the laundry on the roof. He notes how on the one hand all of the news articles report Palestinians fleeing Rafah in terror of the advancing Israelis, while on the other hand this pair of teenagers were alleged to have been permitted by their parents to calmly collect their laundry from where it had been left to dry on the roof. They were said to be 13 and 16 years old. Another member notes that past experience shows this to be well within the age range of Palestinian militants shooting weapons. Now the Israeli side is saying it is believed they were hit by shrapnel or fire from the Palestinian side.
