Israeli forces bomb home in Nuseirat, killing 2 children: Report
The Israeli air strike, which hit a home on al-Ishrin Street in the Nuseirat refugee camp, also injured seven people, mostly children, according to the Palestine Information Center.
The victims have been transferred to the al-Awda Hospital in Jabalia. The strike is the latest in a string of deadly Israeli attacks on homes in the Nuseirat area of central Gaza in recent hours.
Israel’s school attacks suggest ‘complete disregard’ for Palestinian lives
The UN human rights office (OHCHR) has condemned Israel’s attack on the al-Jaouni school in central Gaza and said the military’s latest assault on displaced Palestinians emphasises its failure to comply with international humanitarian law.
The bombing of al-Jaouni – which killed at least 18 people, including six UN staff – came after Israeli forces launched at least 16 attacks on Gaza’s school-turned-shelters in the month of August, OHCHR said.
This comes up to a “rate of one school attack every other day”, it said.
The office also addressed Israel’s claims it was targeting Hamas fighters in the attacks.
It said the use of the presence of civilians by armed groups “to shield a military objective from attack violates international humanitarian law”. Nevertheless, such violations do “not negate the Israeli forces’ obligations” under international law to comply with the principles of distinction, proportionality and precautions in attack.
“The pattern of attacks on shelters leading to verifiably high civilian fatalities, especially in an area that the Israeli military has unilaterally declared safe, suggests a complete disregard for the lives of Palestinian civilians and raises grave concerns about the systematic commission of disproportionate attacks or attacks directed at civilians, which are war crimes,” it added.
Suggest? It's been that way for decades.
Plus zero evidence there was a Hamas command center there, or at all the other humanitarian locations Israel keeps bombing. The biggest example, Al Shifa hospital. No command center found, all lies, hospital destroyed, patients executed, mass graves all over the place.
