The strikes hit around Kuwait Hospital early Monday morning, an Associated Press journalist in Rafah said. Some of those wounded in the strikes had been brought to the hospital.
Some of. The death toll stands at over 28,000 dead Palestinians at the hands of Israeli terrorism.
After corralling everyone south, they are now indiscriminately bombing there as well, expect to see the death toll surpass 30,000 within the next 24 hours.
Not to mention the 67,000 injured, and the humanitarian disaster that is unfolding due to lack of access to housing and aid from groups like the UNWRA.
So the casualties will probably surpass 100,000 by this time next week.
Israel must be stopped.

How are we defining terrorism? If it just means any killing we don’t like, then it’s just noise - we can drop it as a word and just say murder. If it means using fear as a weapon, it doesn’t fit here - Israel is intent on violence for violent ends, not achieving victory through fear.
The use of violence or the threat of violence, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political goals.
By that definition at least I’d say it fits Israel’s actions.
That does not mean they are not also guilty of other acts, but terrorism is a tactic they employ to keep the citizens of Palestine oppressed and enacting political goals such as the continuation of Hamas (as well as directly funding them) which helps them muster internal support for campaigns of colonialism and genocide.
Israels crimes are multi-faceted, terrorism is but one of them.
“warns”
It’s not a warning if there aren’t consequences. That’s just whining.
*virtue signaling — the US is happy to make money arming Israel, and are accessories in the genocide.
Heard our funding described as “chuck e cheese tokens for Raytheon” yesterday and can’t stop thinking about it.
It’s not just money, Israel is our unsinkable aircraft carrier. Not just accessories to genocide! Active participants by cutting UNRWA funding.
“Don’t genocide! Stop genocide now, and I will give you our genocide funding!”
“Btw. our patrons support your genocide, and so we are labeling any peace calls as antisemitism.”
Netanyahu must be laughing about the situation.
Fuck Israel.
Wonder who the person who downvoted you was? Fucking genocide supporters.
Strike Israel imho
They don’t want to protect the civilians. What part of that has nobody figured out yet?
Netanyahu tells his pet to shut up and sell him more weapons.
Fuck Israel.Sorry. I’d already commented yesterday. There’s so many articles about this genocide that I can’t keep them straight. Apologies.
No no, keep posting it, it bears repeating
They have successfully rescued two hostages in Rafah: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-68271340. Great news!
At least they didn’t shoot these ones.
Damn, downvoting the recovery of people who have been held hostage for over 100 days is wild. Especially considering releasing the rest of them would help end this madness.
Diplomacy has resulted in the release of more hostages than military action has. Just saying.
Potentially yes, Hamas has refused the last few ceasefire offers tabled by Egypt and Qatar however so Israel isn’t being left with options other than militarily recovering their people. The option to stop fighting is not a reasonable one given Hamas clear position that they intend to attack again…and again.
I mean… Israel isn’t exactly accepting the offers made by the other side to stop the fighting and get their people back. They seem more intent on committing a couple of war crimes.

That’s fair but the reply of essentially Israel conceding defeat when they’re not losing the war seems pretty silly doesn’t it? Hamas isn’t going to be left in place when this is over, they’re not exactly in position to be making those sort of demands.
Because they want to save the hostages. Supposedly, right? That’s why they would “concede defeat” (that’s not what a ceasefire is). Regardless of what happens to Hamas, if Israel continues to oppress Gazans, more uprisings will occur. Hamas does not own the idea of resistance.
Their goals have been very clear. They want the hostages and they want the threat of Hamas gone.
No country in the world would stand to have a genocidal maniacal threat on their border repeatedly saying they’re going. Hamas has made clear their intent to repeat 10/7 Their removal is a key objective and has been since the start. Why would you ignore this?
The next violent uprising will be met with the same response. When the Arabs love their children more than they hate Jews there will be peace. That’s been true since it was first spoken.
