Hamas appeared to admit using human shields to fire rockets into Israel for the first time today, but refused to accept responsibility for the slaughter of hundreds of innocent Palestinians killed in retaliatory airstrikes.

But while Ghazi Hamad claimed they took safeguards to keep people away from the violence, he admitted ‘mistakes were made’, blaming Israel’s heavy-handed response for the deaths of civilians.
