People of Rafah ordered to move to al-Mawasi – now occupation is killing them there too, not for the first time, and again targeting mainly children
Last week, Israel ordered hundreds of thousands of people living in Rafah, southern Gaza, to move to the tiny supposed ‘safe zone’ of al-Mawasi, a wasteland filled with the tents of refugees. Following its pattern throughout the more than five hundred days of its genocide, it then started bombing them there – including the use of US-made ‘mother of all bombs’ heavy munitions.
And tonight it is bombing them again – and again it has killed and wounded mainly children:
In just three weeks from 18 March to 9 April, the United Nations documented almost 230 Israeli airstrikes on tents and makeshift residences in Gaza occupied by displaced refugees. Ravina Shamdasani, spokeswoman for the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights, said today that at least 36 of those had killed only women and children. Almost all the others had killed women and children among the victims.
Israel is a terror state and a rogue state – and an infanticidal state.
