Emergency workers told NBC News that the death toll was likely to rise, as many people had been trapped in the encampment as it was engulfed in flames.
NBC reported that the strike took place less than a mile away from a Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) medical facility, where at least 180 injured people arrived on Sunday.
Jewish Voice for Peace said in a statement, “We will never forget the images emerging from Rafah tonight. Human beings, including babies, were burned alive and torn apart. This genocide must end, it must end now.”
“The U.S. government has facilitated this genocide by continuously sending weapons and funding to the Israeli military, despite mass opposition from the American people,” the group added. “We hold the U.S. government, in addition to the Israeli government, responsible for the slaughter of over 36,000 Palestinians, for the siege and starvation of Palestinians in Gaza, and for mass destruction of infrastructure and land. We demand an end to all U.S. funding to the Israeli military now. People of conscience throughout the world are calling for an end to genocide.”
That’s a heartwrenching photo.
FUCKING HELL
WHY ARE HUMANS LIKE THIS
We needed to be able to protect ourselves when we were individual tribes. That meant we needed to be able to hurt people if push came to shove. So, we can turn off the empathy when we’ve determined that someone is our enemy. And modern leaders abuse the shit out of that response for their own benefit. Because they want things and other people are in the way.
They’re Zionists
Tribalism is a bitch.
If Israel insists that there is no genocide and that they’re doing their best then I think it’s time to end the Israeli experiment.
Making enemies for generations to come.
