#UNRWA: 69% of school buildings housing displaced people in the Gaza Strip were exposed to Israeli bombardment or were directly damaged.
This is a new low in any war in recent history.
Any other country would have been subject to countless sanctions, global condemnations and even blockades, but not Israel.
While the world has moved on Israel keep committing war crime in Gaza: "Women and children were burned and body parts were everywhere." A young man talked about the brutal details of the massacre of Mawasi neighborhood in #Rafah by the #IDF today.
Remember the BS lies of #US propaganda about #Biden warning #Netanyahu about attacking Rafah?
Netanyahu has once again showed who is the boss and slaughtering the besieged and defenceless Palestinians.
You don't hear him or his criminal spokespersons saying anything about the horrors of #Rafah and and the imposed starvation of half a million #Palestinians, most of them women and children.
WP whitewash Netanyahu again: #Netanyahu dissolves war cabinet but plans to keep far right sidelined
🔶️ #BenGvir and #Smotrich’s continued influence, even from outside the war cabinet, was partly the reason for the resignation of war cabinet members Benny #Gantz and Gadi #Eisenkot last week. The two centrists said they joined the cabinet to ensure the war was conducted responsibly, but have since concluded they couldn’t work with Netanyahu as long as he refused to commit to a day-after strategy for Gaza.
🔶️ The departure came after a string of military leaders made rare public statements airing their grievances with Netanyahu’s handling of the war in Gaza, with many saying that Israel cannot afford to continue it indefinitely, especially with tensions escalating on the Lebanese border.
🔶️ Brig. Gen. Efraim Sneh, a former deputy minister of defense, said that Israel has achieved its military objectives of degrading the majority of Hamas capabilities and can afford to declare an end to the war in Gaza, get back the hostages, and redirect its focus to distancing #Hezbollah forces from its northern border.
🔶️ “Israel is in an unacceptable situation, in which a big part of the country has been deserted,” he said. He added that, while “Israel’s forces are stretched thin between Gaza and the Lebanese border,” Netanyahu’s far-right coalition partners are exacerbating the situation by blocking hundreds of thousands of Palestinian day laborers from entering Israel and enacting punitive measures against the #WestBank-based Palestinian Authority.
🔶️ The #IDF is moving closer to a larger war with Hezbollah, Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari, a spokesman for the Israeli military, said in a video message Sunday. Fighting between Israel and Hezbollah has intensified in recent weeks at the Lebanese border. “Hezbollah’s increasing aggression is bringing us to the brink of what could be a wider escalation — one that could have devastating consequences for Lebanon and the entire region,” Hagari said. After an Israeli strike killed a Hezbollah commander last week, a Hezbollah official said the militant group would retaliate with increased operations “in intensity, strength, quantity and quality.”
Israeli cabinet discusses punitive measures against #UN agencies
🔶️ Months of tensions boil over after UN chief adds Israeli military to #blacklist for failing to protect #children in conflict
🔶️ Benjamin #Netanyahu’s government has discussed far-reaching measures against UN agencies operating in Israel and the Palestinian territories, including the possible expulsion of staff, according to five people familiar with the matter.
🔶️ The UN has slammed Israel for not doing enough to protect either the organisation’s own humanitarian personnel in Gaza or Palestinian civilians, with #Guterres calling Gaza a “graveyard for children”.
Israel vows to press on in Gaza after UN Security Council approves ceasefire proposal
🔶️ Israel has vowed to persist with its military operation in Gaza, saying it won’t engage in “meaningless” negotiations with #Hamas, shortly after the United Nations Security Council overwhelmingly approved a US-backed #ceasefire plan intended to bring an end to the eight-month war.
🔶️ Israel’s representative to the UN, Reut Shapir Ben-Naftaly, emphasized at a #UNSC meeting Monday that her country wants to “ensure that Gaza doesn’t pose a threat to Israel in the future.”
🔶️ Her comments came after 14 of the 15 UNSC council members voted in favor of Monday’s US-drafted resolution, with only #Russia abstaining – the first time the council has endorsed such a plan to end the war. Israel is not a member of the UNSC, and so did not vote.
Kick this rogue nation out of #UN. They do not belong to the world nations. They are a nation of arrogant #savages.
IDF have admitted that they lost 8 active dutyewar criminals during a single incident in Gaza today.
The Palestinian resistance had earlier reported that they had destroyed the APC these soldiers were traveling with using a Yasin 105 Iranian designer modified RPG 7 specially built to penetrate Israeli Markva tanks that used to be called the safest tanks in the world.
The Israel assault on Gaza have shown that the myth of Israeli military superiority and it's iron dome and Markva tanks being the best and the safest military equipments in the world, while Hamas and Hezbollah have easily penetrated and destroyed these multi million dollar hardware with home made weapons not costing even a fraction of those built by Israel.
Not to forget using aid truck as the mean of military operations which is clearly made as a crime in Geneva convention.
Question is, will it have any impact on the favorable relationship between US, UK and EU with Israel? Or it's going to be one another crimes comitted by Israel that goes unpunished.
"One said I came here and I was completely fine, but I lost my leg. Another said I was completely fine but I lost my arm." Horrifying testimonies by men, who were released yesterday from an Israeli detention camp.
It's just beyond me how the "world" is watching these outrageous #atrocities with absolutely 0 reaction. It's just unbelievable. This is Pol Pot style atrocities, this is ISIS style atrocities, this is just something everyone used to get outraged and angry about.
But, when Israel does these, the "worldx leaders go numb.
⭕️Numerous military offensives in recent weeks have led to recurrent mass casualty influxes at #MSF-supported medical facilities in Rafah and the Middle Area of Gaza.
⭕️How can the killing of more than 800 people in a single week, including small #children, plus the maiming of hundreds more, be considered a military operation adhering to international #humanitarian law?,
⭕️ Israel repeatedly bombed so-called safe zones, #refugee camps, a school and multiple humanitarian warehouses, which were formally registered as ‘deconflicted’ by Israeli forces.
⭕️We call on Israel’s allies, including the #US, $UK, and #EU member states, to do everything in their power to influence Israel to stop attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure in Gaza.
The UN World Food Program (WFP) has temporarily suspended operations from a pier in central Gaza after two of the aid group's warehouses in the enclave were struck, according to the agency's director.
"I'm concerned about the safety of our people after the incidents yesterday," stated Cindy McCain, WFP executive director, in an interview with CBS on Sunday.
"Two of our warehouses, the warehouse complex, were rocketed yesterday," she explained. "We've stepped back just for the moment [...] to ensure that we're on safe terms and on safe ground before we restart."
WTF story of the day: #DePaul $University in #Chicago has dismissed Professor Anne d’Aquino for assigning her students to explore the impact of "genocide in Gaza" on human health.
The University administration cited "objections from some students" who felt that introducing politics into a science class was inappropriate and considered the material "outside the scope" of the course.
According to Israeli media reports, a "huge incident" occurred in #Rafah City, as dozens of Israeli occupation helicopters continued extracting casualties among Israeli occupation forces in the city.
Dr. Mengele living in Israeli mindset: Israeli doctors share prisoners’ medical information with interrogators to “greenlight” torture, teach interrogators how to inflict pain without leaving physical marks, and even actively engage in acts of torture themselves.
From organ trafficking, to doctors amputating hands and feet of prisoners because they were cut off circulation with zip ties for weeks and months to refusing care to injured and letting them bleed to death, Israel has shown the world that instead of learning a lesson from the horrors of holocaust, they have embraced their horrifying behavior and building up to new levels.
Israel as a state is a rogues state that needs to be treated as one. It has s not about Netanyahu or Ben-Gvir or militant settlers, the core foundation of state of Israel is written and needs to be treated as such.

She was healthy and unharmed after 8 months captivity, despite all the lies and take stories about how they are being held in Gaza.
While a large portion of the Palestinian population in Gaza starving because of Israeli blockade of food, the Israeli prisoners were well fed and in good health after their release.
Unlike every Palestinian who face unthinkable level of torture including sodomy, starvation, amputation of their hands and feet because of extensive use of military zip tie as handcuffs. None of the 4 Israelis released by IDF after slaughter of over 200 palestinians.
I saw a convoy of about 30 cars on the highway back in October. I looked it up and found nothing. Then I see a Reddit post in /r/vexillollogy with the same flag and no useful answers....
Yeah that's my point. It seems like the person is saying that it's crazy to believe that the #savethechildren bumper sticker is anti-trans. It's a really common right-wing 'trick'. You make up a phrase implying gay or trans people are after kids and then go "it doesn't say anything about that on the sticker, I guess that says something about trans people if that's where your mind went" when called out on it.
Does anyone know what this flag means? ( lemmy.ca )
