    Look at this

    Video released by the Palestinian health ministry shows ambulance crews arriving at the scene of the airstrike.

    One ambulance crew came under fire as they were tending to a young girl and a woman inside the ambulance.

    CLASSIC ISRAEL. Kill civilians. Shoot at ambulances trying to help civilians, then claim that the Palestinians did it to themselves.

    So again we have confirmed video evidence that the ambulance responding to this got hit directly… And I still see people here want to shroud it in mystery and skepticism.

    I get it. I’m a skeptic. I understand that it is important to confirm from the Israeli side. However, Israel lies in the media nonstop and then simply gets away with it. It’s Israel’s claims that need to be confirmed, not the Gazan health ministry. Israel simply brushes it aside and says, “pfff no idea could be Hamas booby traps.”

    No, Israel, fuck you, explain these dead people now. Fucking explain this.

    And why was that ambulance hit? Why have we seen so many videos and images of hit ambulances and news of dead medical staff and Israel won’t even give the slightest fuck to inconvenience itself and explain its crimes?

      This is why they are so keen to target electricity and journalists. It ensures that the news is dominated by one side of the story.
