Israeli Forces Killed 28 Health Care Workers in Lebanon in 24 Hours, WHO Says
At least 40 health centers and two hospitals have been forced to close amid Israel’s assault.
Israeli forces killed 28 health care workers in Lebanon in just the past day, WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said in a press briefing on Thursday. So far, Israeli forces have killed 1,600 people, including over 100 children, in the past two weeks in Lebanon.
Israel has openly adopted attacks on health care as a military practice in its genocide in Gaza — one of many tactics that seemingly violate international wartime law that Israel is now using on Lebanon.
Israel is carrying out intense shelling in Lebanon, killing nearly the same number of people in Lebanon in just 10 days as were killed in the 2006 Lebanon war,
Israel’s violence is also causing a major displacement crisis. (...) at least 1.2 million people across Lebanon, or over a fifth of the population, have been forcibly displaced amid Israel’s attacks.
It's shocking to me that there are still "people" that support this so called country.
Questioning the humanity of Jews and the legitimacy of Israel as a nation?
Found yet another Hamas antisemite on Lemmy!
Genocidal ethnostates (but I repeat myself) are not legitimate and should not exist.
He never mentioned Jews, got something you feel bad about so now you white knight? He said people support them. The US government isn't Jewish last I checked, and we support them. You're capable of nuanced discussion, I've seen your profile....maybe give that a shot here.
Christ you’re a pathetic human being.
Fuck off.
Jeeze, do they just target civilian locations exclusively?
This is actually indicative of follow up strikes. A war crime meant to discourage health workers from evacuating wounded after an air or artillery strike. It's not something that just randomly happens.
More war crimes, for fuck sake.
In less than one week Israel has killed more Lebanese people than the total of Israelis in the past year including October 7.
Going forward let's swap " Nazi" for "Israeli" to describe despicable acts of racist inhumanity.
No. Israeli is a nationality. Nazi is a political ideology.
They're Zionazis.
NaZionists
2nd verse, same as the 1st.
Why do the people of Israel never try to riot or protest against these war crimes they commit?
Remember when the Israeli public did riot and protest and stormed a police office, because they wanted the military to have the right to gang rape random people.
True.
Israel has put great effort into tying judaism with zionism. The people that went to school in Israel (but also some jewish people abroad through jewish educational programs sponsored by Israel) learn that any attack on Israel is an attack on jews akin to the holocaust, and that all Palestinians want to kill all jews. Israel as an apartheid state has also been very attractive to racist people who do not care and even welcome a genocide of the people they consider to be ‘lesser’. Israel used that to advertise to such alt right people so that they can continue to violently colonise more Palestinian land. The people that do not condone apartheid and genocide were more likely to leave in the last decades (if they were able to) leaving those still there as a minority.
Netanyahu’s popularity rose with the invasion and large scale bombings of civilian targets in Libanon. That should tell you enough about what most Israeli’s think of the genocide.
Have you seen videos of interviews with Israelis or translated some Hebrew Facebook posts? The whole society is sick. They would cheer this on and demand more violence.
I'm sure there are some in Israel who might not approve but I feel like the vast majority approves of this. You don't decide to live in Israel unless you're Zionist.
The same is true of Palestinians and Hamas though: https://www.fdd.org/analysis/2024/03/22/poll-hamas-remains-popular-among-palestinians/
So weird, how people rally to support those attacking the people who've recently done them grievous harm.
They do. You just haven't bothered to look: https://www.bbc.com/news/videos/c722pyj1zm1o
You're only proving me right here.
Tens of thousands of Israelis have protested in Tel Aviv demanding a Gaza ceasefire deal and the return of hostages held by Hamas.
They are protesting to bring the prisoners home and return to their normal lives, they are not protesting against the warcrimes being committed.
Wow, Terrorists are penetrating into the country in every aspect
