More civilians slaughtered for trying to survive
Israeli troops have fired on an aid distribution centre operating from a school in the Jabalia refugee camp in Gaza, where dozens of people were queuing for food aid, killing at least ten people.
The atrocity comes only hours after occupation aircraft bombed refugees sheltering in tents on the grounds of the Al Aqsa Martyrs Hospital, burning families to death – and as Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu floats plans for a total blockade of all humanitarian aid to northern Gaza, a clear war crime under international law, starving around three hundred thousand people still trying to survive there.
Last week, Israel murdered a number of civilians in Jabalia, including Doctors Without Borders (MSF) medical worker Nasser Hamdi Abdelatif al-Shalfouh. None of these atrocities has so far been mentioned by the Keir Starmer or UK Foreign Secretary David Lammy, let alone condemned.
