At least 31 Palestinians shot dead while seeking aid in Gaza, hospital officials say

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by Emile (a host of the Latest Breaking News forum).

Source: The Guardian

At least 31 Palestinians were shot dead on their way to an aid distribution site in the Gaza Strip on Saturday, while Israeli airstrikes killed at least 28 Palestinians including four children, Palestinian hospital officials and witnesses said.

Israel’s military said it had fired warning shots toward people it said were behaving suspiciously to prevent them from approaching. It said it was not aware of any casualties. The GHF said no incident had occurred near its sites.

Sumaya al-Sha’er’s 17-year-old son, Nasir, was killed, hospital officials said. “He said to me: ‘Mum, you don’t have flour and today I’ll go and bring you flour. Even if I die, I’ll go and get it,’” she said. “But he never came back home.”

The IDF and the mercenaries who run these Squid Games distribution centers need to be tried in the Hague.

Fuck all the people that support this genocide.

His complete incompetence led to all of those civilians being butchered and others held hostage. Unless he just let it happen so he could unleash this hell on earth. Either way, he's still sh7t!

Shooting "toward" instead of "at". No incidents "near".

When people die or are horrifically injured, you have not only shot "at" them, you have committed murder. Weasel words won't save you.

And when people are routinely murdered on their way to get food, you have devised a system calculated to do just that. One way to do so is by closing over 400 aid distribution centres, and reducing it to just four. Fucking four centres for over 2 million people, guarded by the "most moral army in the world" except that moral army is anything but. Weasel words won't save you.

Genocide enablers/deniers of course cling to such weasel words. Somehow those words are enough to salve their conscience, cloud their minds and numb their hearts to the enormity of the crimes and suffering they enable.

I could not agree with your sentiment more.

The IDF takes sport in gunning down these desperate people and then deny they killed anyone. Even when there are witnesses and it is on tape.
Nearly every fucking day.
By now their words are meaningless as it is a given that Nutinyahoo wants this to continue.
One can only suspend credulity for so long.
