“Overnight and into the early hours of the morning, the Israeli military continued to pound parts of eastern Rafah city,” Al Jazeera reported, adding that health facilities in Rafah are unable to accommodate large numbers of casualties.
The Israeli army has repeatedly used white phosphorus on civilians in Gaza and Lebanon since the start of the war. Rights groups have called for an urgent investigation after several Palestinian corpses were found vaporized in Gaza, suggesting Israel’s possible use of illegal thermobaric weapons to target civilians.
The UN has warned that Israel’s ongoing operation at the Rafah crossing threatens to seriously hinder humanitarian aid efforts.
A four-month-old baby, a six-year-old, and an eight-year-old were killed by an Israeli bombing on the Qishta family home in Rafah on Tuesday afternoon. One man was also killed in an airstrike near the Rafah border crossing.
Don’t worry guys, Israel has no idea how to target buildings “without a marker smoke.”
Pay no attention to all that precise targeting equipment that Israel called “where’s daddy” and “Lavender” that seems to target civilians just fine.
The way it’s been used by the IDF, the where’s daddy system seems deliberately intended to target women and children since they would be sheltering in the domiciles that get bombed without warning.
That is not the way they use this system. It is what the system is designed and cynically named for. They name it “where is daddy” because when daddy comes home, the entire family is murdered.
