The Sakiet bombing killed eighty including civilians and invited Israeli-style comparisons

Evidence

It happened to be a market day, and—as has occurred many times since in the course of Israeli reprisal raids against Al Fatah camps across the Lebanese frontier—the bombs and rockets hit a school and hospital (which the Tunisians claimed was well marked with a red cross visible from the air), as well as the F.L.N. base. Some eighty people, including a number of women and children, were killed. — Horne, Alistair, A Savage War of Peace- Algeria 1954-1962, 778
