• ... that Hamad City was largely destroyed within minutes?

• Source: Around an hour later, five Israeli air strikes rained down on the neighbourhood in the space of just two minutes. Bombs slammed into the pale apartment blocks one by one, reducing them largely to rubble and sending a huge pall of black smoke into the sky, as people fled and cries of 'help!' and 'ambulance!' rang out. France 24

• ALT1: ... that Colonel Yonatan Steinberg's army-issued weapon was found in Hamad City along with the personal effects of Israeli abductees? Source: The weapon of the commander of the Nahal Brigade who was killed at the beginning of the war, Colonel Yonatan Steinberg, was found in recent days by the commando brigade in 'Hamad City' in Khan Yunis. Along with the weapon of the senior officer, the fighters located effects of Israeli abductees. jdn.co.il (Hebrew translation); Source 2: In one of the nearby buildings, the personal weapon of the late Nahal Commander Yehonatan Steinberg, who was killed in a clash on October 7 was found.

• Comment: I personally prefer ALT0. After carefully re-reading the source (and watching the video linked in the article) I am proposing the following ALT in place of ALT0:

General: Article is new enough and long enough
New enough: Long enough:

Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Adequate sourcing: Neutral: Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: I see no evidence of instability. ALT0 is best but may need context as in "Hamad City in Gaza" but I will leave that to a promotor. ALT0a is not confirmed as it says, five airstrikes but not five buildings. I also did not find ALT1 interesting. Lightburst (talk) 23:35, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
