Breaking: Israel bombs Gaza’s Al Ahli Baptist hospital twice in one evening

Hospital that was the first bombed by Israel when the occupation used to bother lying about it is in flames

The Al Ahli Baptist Hospital in central Gaza has been bombed twice in one evening by the Israeli military, with no doubt whatever that it was deliberate – as if any doubt could realistically exist after Israel has systematically attacked every hospital in Gaza – because Israel publicly threatened earlier in the evening to bomb it, as Gaza journalist Anas al-Sharif reported.

Israel ten went ahead with missile strikes on the main hospital building’s surgical department, leaving it in flames, and on the oxygen generation equipment needed for the most gravely injured people:

The Al Ahli Baptist Hospital was the first of Gaza’s hospitals to be targeted by Israel, suffering severe damage and more than a thousand people dead or wounded in the earliest days of the genocide, but Israel at first denied the attack, trying to blame it on a misfired resistance missile until its claim collapsed.

Now the racist regime boasts of its crimes and trumpets them beforehand – yet still the UK, US and other western governments collaborate in its blatant war crimes and crimes against humanity. Like Netanyahu and his fellow criminals in Israel, UK political leaders belong in the dock of the International Criminal Court in The Hague.
