"Hamas continues to fire rockets from the humanitarian zone toward Israel!" Adraee wrote on his official X (formerly Twitter) account, attaching an aerial overview of the area to support his statement. "This is further proof that Hamas exploits the humanitarian aid provided by the IDF to Gaza residents for terrorist activities."

Adraee also mentioned that on Friday, "Hamas terrorists fired rockets, at 13:56 and then at 14:16, four rockets from the humanitarian zone, which fell inside the Strip, endangering the lives of many Gazan civilians."
Additionally, the IDF revealed last week that Hamas launched 12 rockets toward Be’er Sheva from launching pads located not far from the humanitarian zone in Rafah near a UN facility. "@UN, hear a loud noise yesterday?” The IDF’s X account wrote shortly after the report. "That was the sound of 12 Hamas rockets launched toward Israeli civilians in southern Israel. Hamas is the enemy of humanity and makes itself a threat to the entire world.”

The military also added that Hamas launched a rocket last Wednesday at 12:52 pm from a humanitarian zone in Al-Mawasi in the southern Gaza Strip which fell short and exploded inside the coastal enclave, endangering Gazan residents. At 14:12, Hamas launched another rocket from the Al-Mawasi area.

Where’s the UN to condemn such actions?

Hamas fights in civilian clothes and not in proper uniforms, operates within civilian neighborhoods, school, mosques and hospitals, steals aid from Gazans and hides it in their tunnels, fires at people crossing through humanitarian corridors, shoots rockets from safe zones and uses human shields to protect its military assets.
And people still wonder why so many civilians die.

Cynical abuse and disregard of their own population
They'll literally do anything and kill anyone just to make sure the civilians don't get confused by the fact that Israel is doing everything humanly possible not to harm them deliberately. Including putting them in the line of fire or trying to draw fire towards them.
Hamas literally thrive on dead Palestinians where Israel gains nothing from accidentally killing them. And people seem so blind to this that it's sick.
