Human Rights Watch: Israeli Forces Attack Known Aid Worker Locations in Gaza

Support our work: www.democracynow.org/donate?c...
A new Human Rights Watch Report finds Israeli forces have attacked humanitarian aid convoys and facilities at least eight times since October 7 despite being given their coordinates. Israeli authorities did not issue advance warnings to any of the aid organizations before the attacks, which killed at least 15 people, including two children, and injured at least 16 others. More than 250 aid workers have been killed in Gaza over the past seven months, according to the United Nations. “Aid workers, unfortunately, die in conflict zones,” says HRW researcher Belkis Wille. “What’s really unique in the context of Gaza is the high number in such a short period of time.”
Wille also discusses a recent U.S. government report that found Israel has likely violated international law in its assault on Gaza but that it could not make that conclusion definitively - a “shocking” finding, she says. “The United States absolutely has to start doing more to limit military assistance to Israel. … And it needs to do far more to protect civilians more broadly.”

@@lizbethartemis4886 Agreed. However, having grown up in a particularly nasty guerilla war in Rhodesia & South Africa, I can tell you that the IDF is in fact encouraging the aberrant behavior of their troops ('God is on our side ' crap & 'needs must'). The end result will a large amount of young Israeli soldiers with severe PTSD & rage, who are unable to assimilate back into society.

Uh, yea. THEY did this already, wayyy before 1967 or 1948 or October 7th. Bolsheviks utterly massacred the original Old Believers/Chretiens of Europe.. These carried out the genocides of THE Christians throughout Europe, Asia, the Levant, North Africa, etcetera.. Syria, Greece, Anatolia, Armenia, etcetera.. That was the re-shaping of the world and all histories. When it has been reported that over 3,000,000 women from ages 8-80 were raped en mass, and the world has since said, "they deserved it.." what do the people of modernity really expect when the complicit world has turned a blind eye to real atrocities wayyyy before now.. Bolsheviks, raped in all of the countries that they (occupied) "liberated".. The Cheka, NKVD, their Gulag system, the decadent hedonistic Weimar Republic, anarchy, all of the isms, etc are all of these people that SAY they are jews.. Savage slaughterers, those Bolsheviks are, historically. They tell us that the Germans conducted satanic experiments.. Yet, TODAY, the so-called "scientists" are manipulating animals and man, they're splicing, and cloning, talking about bringing back extinct animals AND they are experimenting upon us all with their* industry of pharmakeia bka SORCERY .. (No one notices this, apparently.. They're stuck on those perpetual bad guys of 1945 as the story has been told so much so, that they compare bad guys among us today to them.. but, we're still dealing with the real bad guys from those times, today!!!!) The so-called russian revolution was really just a jewish overthrow that has been presented to us as a righteous revolution, today.. Assassinations.. Mass rapes.. Deportations.. Death marches.. Mass exiles.. Slave/labor systems.. Population exchanges.. All this happened before, in recent history, but no one speaks of it. I guess we aren't supposed to know the real truth of the Sayfo.. 🤔 They'd be mistaken. Oh yea.. then, THEY told us, that the russians massacred themselves! 🙄.. But, the Bolsheviks HATED the real Russians! .. Meanwhile, they are suppressing/banning many innumerable books and literature that tell a wholly DIFFERENT story of this people, and their qabbalah esotericist ways.. No one should be shocked at anything about them today, given their actual history.

The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life.

No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if one of us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God.
