An Israeli strike hit the home of her extended family in the southern Gaza city of Rafah late Saturday, killing her children, her husband and 11 other relatives and leaving another nine missing under the rubble, according to survivors and local health officials.

Israeli airstrikes have regularly hit crowded family homes since the start of the war in Gaza, even in Rafah, which Israel declared a safe zone in October but is now the next target of its devastating ground offensive.

The strikes often come without warning, usually in the middle of the night.

    The current Israeli government is guilty of perpetuating the cycle of violence thrust upon them during WW2.

    The current Israel Government is equivalent to that of the Nazi party.

    The current Israel Government is guilty of genocide, condoning war crimes and of crimes against humanity.

    The Israeli government must stand trial for their actions and be held accountable. If that means their death or eternal incarceration, then so be it.

    Do the crime. Pay the time.

    Free Palestine, you fucking terrorists.

            Israel isn’t just killing Hamas. They’re killing civilians. They’re not taking any appropriate steps to avoid killing civilians. Israel has all the power in this situation, including the power to avoid as much collateral damage as possible, but they don’t care about collateral damage, they only care about giving collective punishment.

    The military on Sunday didn’t comment on this attack but said it “follows international law and takes feasible precautions to mitigate civilian harm.”

    Bunch of clowns 🤡. Do they even believe this themselves?

    I think it’s fair to criticize the extremism that continues to perpetuate violence In the Israel-Palestine conflict. That said, OP’s Lemmy account is super weird.

    It was created four months ago, and basically only comments and posts around one topic. My Spidey sense starts to tingle whenever I see accounts that are only posting about a singular take on a singular political or geopolitical topic.

    Fuck Bibi and all, but OP’s account is weird AF.

      Weird right? When Reddit starts mass censoring a topic people emigrate to a different place.

        I was referring to the fact that your account only ever posts and comments about one thing. Most people’s accounts have varied interests. Your account resembles that of a bot or a troll farm.

          That’s weird because I do post comments about other things. Reading must be difficult.
