Unfortunately, it caters mostly to the Israeli side, as it is in Hebrew and relies on Hebrew sources of information.
I would very much be interested in helping build a similar system for Palestinians in Gaza, but from past attempts to organize similar cooperations, help is not necessarily wanted.
That being said, I am aware of several Palestinian users in Gaza who do follow this account for various purposes.

- yuvadam 12y agoPossibly, but most reports never mention specific coordinates. Israelis already have complete drone coverage of Gaza Strip, they don't need reports on hits. Palestinians cannot possibly use coordinates to aim homebrew rockets being used. Hit radius is e.g. around 1km for far range rockets.
- aerialfish 12y agoDuring the last flare up with Hezbollah, my friends in the Haifa suburbs told me that there were some gag orders on some rockets that landed near them to prevent Hezbollah from knowing that they had successful hits. But I suppose the rockets of Hamas vs Hezbollah would be different. EDIT: Seems like their rockets are reaching Tel Aviv so I guess they aren't as crude as they used to be...
- hyperliner 12y agoThose rockets have long range, not precision.
- anigbrowl 12y agoThanks, I don't ask to be partisan, just to gain a better understanding of the situation. I hope the conflict dies down quickly and that there is less death and destruction for everyone to worry about.

- aosmith 12y agoI imagine there is a lot of data available on the Israeli side but not as much on the Palestinian side.
