Authorities in Gaza say Israeli forces have committed a massacre in Gaza City, killing at least 104 Palestinians as they waited for food aid. Gaza’s Health Ministry says over 760 people were wounded in what Hamas called an “unprecedented war crime.” According to eyewitnesses, Israeli forces opened fire on the crowd who had gathered around humanitarian aid trucks. The death toll is expected to rise as hospitals in Gaza City are struggling to treat the wounded. Dr. Jadallah al-Shafei of Al-Shifa Hospital spoke to Al Jazeera shortly after the attack.
Dr. Jadallah al-Shafei: “Since the early hours of the morning, the hospital has been flooded with dozens of dead bodies and hundreds of injured. The majority of the victims suffered gunshot wounds and shrapnel in the head and upper parts of their bodies. They were hit by direct artillery shelling, drone missiles and gunfire. All our operation rooms are full, and all medical staff have been deployed. Above all, we ran out of medical supplies and fuel necessary to operate the hospital. We hope we will be able to provide any life-saving procedures to those victims. All victims are in critical condition. They’re lying on the floor. We stand helpless amid the sharp shortage of supplies and staff.”
This comes as Palestinian officials say the death toll in Gaza since October 7 has topped 30,000. The staggering milestone, which does not account for thousands still missing or trapped under rubble, represents one out of every 75 people in Gaza. The U.N. says over half a million people in Gaza are on the cusp of starvation. The Gaza Health Ministry reports six children recently died from dehydration and malnutrition. Seven other children are in critical condition. After headlines, we will speak to Democratic Senator Jeff Merkley, who recently visited the Egyptian side of the Rafah border crossing.
Im curious what you thought I was justifying with my mental gymnastics.
I have no doubt that individuals from both sides have committed war crime/crimes against humanity, and those members should swing.
I don’t understand how you manage to bring both sides whenever israel does something. I read the article and I’m quite confused about your statement. People do not need to understand what is a war crime or a genocide. When they see something bad, they react to it. Get used to it. You were complaining about the masses having a voice in an earlier comment, idk what to say. The problem is not “certain individuals” doing bad things but systematic oppression happening for 75 years. You can also call it apartheid. It won’t be solved by “swinging” some people.
Edit: After looking at your comment history it’s clear you have an obsession with hanging people on “public ropes” and that you also think it’s legal to carpet bomb civilians. I guess all those smart words you use are only to hide yourself. This is the end of my conversation.
Why are you acting like you understand it? How do I link comments in lemmy. You were justifying carpet bombing with “legality” and then ended the sentence with ‘both sides should swing ropes’ to balance it out. What a troll.
Lmao this guy is a known troll. I saw your comment in the “china speaks against israel” post lol. https://lemm.ee/comment/9520119
If you getting downvoted so much, maybe take a step back and re evaluate your takes https://lemm.ee/comment/9265091 but if you qant botted updoots go to reddit.
From a browser there’s a link icon (two interlocking shackles) that creates a link. From mobile, I use an app so I have to open the post through my browser first
I don’t think I ever posted what you said though, but please prove me wrong
I didn’t find it. Your comments are filled with downvotes so it’s hard to find the specific one but here are some to prove that you are an israeli zionist troll, most probably part of IDF propaganda.

You openly say UN definition of genocide is erong and made up your own one and talking about people understanding it. By your definition, nazis didn’t commit a genocide either cause if they did there wouldn’t be israel or any jews. Re-evaluate yout takes and stop acting like you are intellectually superior.
