We are continuing our live coverage of the latest developments in the Middle East, with a particular focus on Israels war on Gaza.
More than 20 people were killed on Sunday as they went to receive food at an aid distribution point set up by an Israeli-backed foundation in the Gaza Strip, according to a hospital run by the Red Cross that received the bodies.
Witnesses told the Associated Press that Israeli forces opened fire on people as they headed toward the aid distribution site run by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF). There were many martyrs, including women, the 40-year-old resident said. We were about 300 metres away from the military.
Media reports said dozens of people were being treated at the hospital after the latest incident at the controversial site in Rafah.
Just think what might be revealed if the western press were allowed in Gaza.

(948 posts)No western media wants to to walk in to this fucking mess and report that Netanyahu has burnt up all of State of Israel's holocaust political capital.
How are they supposed to report that the IDF are now Stormtroopers?

How can the IOF (Israeli Occupation Forces) live with themselves?
Who will step in and save humanity?

(1,272 posts)I have seen too much of that on this site, and was honestly considering leaving because of it. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli government is NOT antisemitic. Netanyahu has got to go. Many Israelis want him gone as well.

(2,176 posts)The new U.S.-Israeli genocide strategy: starve the population, lure them with promises of aid, then kill them.
I'm sure they'll blame it on Hamas.
