“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.

    And now the OP has disappeared. Anyone heard of The Cradle? Reputable?

      People have lives outside Lemmy.

      But it doesn’t seem reputable to me. Rather new outfit, a lot of stuff unattributed, and clearly slanted, though I wouldn’t say they’re actively pushing an agenda. Also, most of their articles just seem to be reporting on other orgs doing the actual journalism.
