The World Food Programme (WFP) has announced a pause in the movement of its employees in the Gaza Strip “until further notice” after one of its vehicles was hit by gunfire just metres from an Israeli-controlled checkpoint.
UN spokesman Stephane Dujarric blamed Israel for the attack, telling reporters in New York that the “clearly marked” humanitarian vehicle was “struck 10 times” by Israeli gunfire, including with bullets targeting front windows.
Five of the bullets were on the driver’s side and some on the windscreen.
Dujarric said the convoy’s movements had been coordinated with the Israeli military and it had clearance to approach.
They say Hamas are terrorists because they attack innocent civilians and that may be true, but it seems that by the same metric, aren’t the IDF also terrorists for attacking innocent civilians in clearly marked vehicles ?
Verily i say more, If we go by how much civilian infrastructure and casualties have been committed, one side is clearly acting more strongly within the definition of terrorist than the other.
Worry not: Biden will quickly pass an executive order for an emergency shipment from the US to Israel of bullets to replace the ones those brave IDF soldiers spent defending themselves from that evil UN Humanitarian vehicle.
Wouldn’t want them to be low on bullets if, God forbid, they’re faced with an even more dangerous assailant such as, for example, a Palestinian 5 year old child.
*again.
Israeli forces fire on UN food agency’s team in Gaza again.
the “clearly marked” humanitarian vehicle
They’re white. Except for the massive black markings. I don’t think it can get much more obvious without bringing beacons and a sky writing display in.
UN prepares the extra angry pen for this letter
Fucking war criminals.
