Some observers were surprised by the execution by members of the Israeli army of some sheep that did not pose any threat to them, adding that this army was accustomed to killing and committing massacres and crimes in Gaza without any accountability or legal prosecution, due to the absolute Western support for the occupation government.

The (mercy) of the soldiers of the occupation army has extended beyond humans to animals! After killing human beings, including children, women, and men, and burning trees and stones, they move on to killing God’s creatures, the poor animals. What do we say to them if God has removed mercy from their hard hearts, which God Almighty described as being like stones, or even more cruel?

Bloggers said that Israeli army snipers targeted sheep so that the people of Gaza would not benefit from them, who have been under siege for 17 years. They pointed out that mercy had been stripped from the soldiers of the occupation army. After killing humans, they moved to animals! After killing humans, including children, women, and men, and burning trees and stones, they moved. To kill God's creatures, poor animals, according to what one of them said.

Tweeters mocked human rights associations that did not move to stop the humanitarian massacres committed by the occupation against civilians in Gaza, and they hoped that this video would move animal welfare associations.

Perhaps this video will attract the attention of animal welfare societies instead of paying attention to compassion for humans. #Animal_Welfare

Killing sheep and sheep in the famine war on Gaza is nothing but the hateful Zionist racist ideology to kill more people of #Gaza
