The IDF have reportedly carried out airstrikes on displaced people, in an area Israel designated a 'humanitarian area'. They told people to go there, displaced people to that area, and have now reportedly bombed it.

Airstrikes on Rafah reportedly kill 30 after Hamas launches rockets at Tel Aviv

Medics in the southern Gaza city say the strikes hit an area of tents being used by displaced people.

Absolute fucking scumbags. The scenes I've seen will give me nightmares. God help them.

No words for this.

This is beyond horrendous, disgusting.

Netanyahu and his government have dragged Israel into the darkest corner of history, these actions will never be forgotten 😔

EllaDisenchanted · 26/05/2024 22:45

Media here are reporting that strikes against a military target nearby ignited a fire which spread to the civilian camp. I don’t know the truth of what happened, but the loss of life and scenes are awful, I’m so so sorry 😞

Scirocco · 26/05/2024 22:50

@EllaDisenchanted I saw reports of rocket attacks towards Tel Aviv - I hope you and your family are safe. It's all so horrible, for everyone.

Anyone firing missiles at civilian populations needs to have the full weight of international justice come down on them.

I don't think anyone who has been paying attention would expect Israel to admit to bombing displaced people in tents.

IbisDancer · 26/05/2024 22:57

I saw the footage too. Pieces of people. It’s been blurred by now.
30 is the most current death toll.

There is no excuse for this.

TokyoSushi · 26/05/2024 22:59

Just horrific.

Jonismorf · 26/05/2024 23:00

Those Hamas cunts deliberately launched an attack whilst hiding behind innocent children in the full knowledge that the IDF would retaliate in this way. If a terrorist shoots at a soldier and the soldier returns fire and the terrorist holds up a child to shield himself from the bullets, who is the murderer?

Israel is doing the murdering here. HTH.

MyGreenFinch · 26/05/2024 23:02

@Jonismorf I don’t know the answer to that one. I don’t think anyone comes out of it looking good in the end.

In your scenario it is the soldier.

A soldier is a legitimate target in a war and was not harmed.

A child is a civilian, and the soldier is not legally permitted to retaliate by shooting through a child to hit a terrorist. Or even shoot through an adult male or female civilian. Hostages are not targets.

Collective punishment and targeting of civilians is prohibited.

It is only a matter of time before one of the "But Hamas..." brigade shows up.

Parkingt111 · 26/05/2024 23:14

Thank you Ella 💔

There is no defence of this.
Anyone who tries to is inhuman.

There are no words.
This world is lost.. if 1 single person thinks this is in anyway defensable.
I genuinly cry for us all

Tel12 · 26/05/2024 23:33

This has to stop. Fgs it's too much.

PearlKoala · 26/05/2024 23:33

Those poor children. Really haunting scenes coming out this evening. My heart feels so heavy, there is just no end to the pain Palestinians are having to endure 💔

IbisDancer · 26/05/2024 23:34

I just want it to stop. 🛑
It was too much death and destruction by mid-October, I don’t know how anyone can comtinue to support this.

anotherlevel · 26/05/2024 23:51

I just can't. It's horrific. Worse than your worst nightmares.

There's a special place in hell for those responsible.

Thanks @EllaDisenchanted, I hope you're all keeping safe too.
