Israel allegedly used one of its biggest and most destructive bombs in areas it designated "safe" for civilians in the Gaza Strip during the first six weeks of its war against Hamas. Citing visual evidence, The New York Times reported the Jewish nation used 2,000-pound (907kg) bombs in a southern Gaza area where civilians were urged to flee earlier. Experts say bombs of this size are used by Western militaries but are "almost never" dropped in "densely populated areas anymore."
