I am trying to understand why you think those particular kids, or any "kids on the beach" (like they were sunbathing there) were purposefully targeted?
I can only think malice.
Or that a target has to have armed soldiers/militia present with guns ablaze?
Does that change the target's legitimacy?
According to Ibrahim Barzak & Daneil Estrin (both @ Associated Press) -
A witness who identified himself only as Abu Ahmed said the boys were scavenging for scrap metal when a first shell hit a nearby shipping container used in the past by Hamas security forces. He said the boys fled but a rocket "hit all of them."
