By evidence, I mean any source that is not from Israeli government. They don't allow independent journalist to verify information and when Palestinians try to report from inside West Bank or Gaza they get shot in the head from Israeli snipers or a bomb is dropped on them.

Do you believe everything Russia's government is saying about their "special military operation" in Ukraine or do you rely on independent sources?

Is Hamas themselves also not a reasonable source? Like do you even watch their propaganda? It really seems like you absolutely do not?

Propaganda can't be a reasonable or independent source as by definition it has an agenda. So be it Hamas, Israel, US, Ukraine, or Russia or whoever, their propaganda is not independent sources...
