'Just Hamas propaganda': Israel denies three killed in operation to rescue captives

Israeli military spokesman Peter Lerner denied three Israelis were killed on Saturday during  the operation that freed four captives and killed 274 Palestinians. 

The comments come after the military wing of Hamas said the three were killed during the incursion, including one US citizen.

“This is just Hamas propaganda, their attempt to try and create concern in Israel,” Lerner told the UK’s Sky News. “When we listen to what Hamas is saying, I say take it with a pinch of salt. Everything they say.”
