When does the “24 hours” warning end?
The hypocrisy from Israel is unbelievable, shame on U.S. and Europe for helping this genocidal regime.
Scores of people, mainly women and children, have been killed in multiple Israeli air strikes on the main road connecting north and south Gaza, as Palestinians carried out an Israeli order to flee their homes.
According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, at least 70 people have been killed in three separate air strikes on the road, with the latest killing at least 40.
The Israeli army said in a statement on Friday that civilians must leave Gaza City in the north, and that they would not be allowed to return “until we say so” and until “a statement is issued allowing this”.
However, locals have reported a number of attacks on the Salah al-Din Road since then. Survivors, speaking to local media, implored others not to make the journey for fear of being targeted by the Israelis.
“Do not leave,” a distraught survivor of the attacks told local media.
“They bombed the convoy. They bombed it on Salah al-Din Road. They bombed the ambulances.”
Another survivor said the attacks were a “direct targeting of women and children”.
“I was in the truck. There were about 200 people. 90 percent were women and children. We took the main road that the entire world knew we were taking. My entire family were with me. Out of nowhere, they dropped a bomb. Everything was black and I lost conscience for 10 mins,” they told local media.
“When I woke up I saw a mother lying with her baby, whose brain was right next to him. I heard the ambulances then they bombed again. I took cover and after a few minutes tried to check the damage, then they bombed again.”
Yeah, this is definitely how you defeat “terrorists” and not just make more of them.
(I know, making more is their intent. Bibi wants to manufacture hatred on both sides. Zionism needs to die, then maybe something constructive can happen.)
If you’re going to be sexist when decrying Israel for killing women - I guess because they matter more than men? - then you should do the same for all your reporting. There was no gender breakdown on the Hamas killings. This source is specifically wording its article to sell a biased pov.

The point is to say they are non combatants, not to perpetuate gender norms or stereotypes.
Well then say that. Women can be combatants, and men don’t have to fight. It’s funny how the world suddenly goes back to 1900s gender stereotypes when war is involved.
I have a teensy tiny feeling that Hamas doesn’t women combatants.
Yes, hilarious.
“and I helped!” - United States
Seriously, I’ve never been more disgusted in this countries foreign policy.
I wish I could say that but this is quite in line with decades of US foreign policy. At least we aren’t doing the killing with our own hands this time… if that can be considered to be better.
Oh, we’ve done much more disgusting things. Not that supporting ethnic cleansing and war crimes of an apartheid state isn’t disgusting, it’s just that we have such a long resume of atrocious behavior.
