The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have said they carried out an airstrike on a humanitarian aid convoy in Gaza aimed at “armed assailants” trying to hijack it but the charity that organised the aid said people killed in the strike were employees of the transport company it was working with.
The convoy, organised by the US-based NGO Anera, was carrying medical supplies and fuel to an Emirati-run hospital in Rafah on Thursday evening at the time of the attack. Its route had been coordinated in advance with the IDF, under a deconfliction process intended to prevent aid vehicles being bombed.
Anera’s Palestine country director, Sandra Rasheed, said: “This is a shocking incident. The convoy, which was coordinated by Anera and approved by Israeli authorities, included an Anera employee who was fortunately unharmed.
Again Israel attacks anyone and everyone standing next to anyone/anything they claim is Hamas.

Why are we still arming them? Repeatedly?
Because the Christians love it. They get to move the clock forward on their rapture and see Muslims die. They consider it a fantastic thing. Because they’re monsters.
They consider it a fantastic thing. Because they’re monsters.
Infuriatingly, that about covers most of world politics 😮💨
Shit’s totally fucked up https://m.imdb.com/title/tt1372746/
Oh is that why Biden arms them?
Let’s not pretend this is just a few extremist Christians, its much deeper than that.
It’s a nation built on the graves of the natives
The founding father and first president of Palestine, Raj Amin Al-Huseni, was a member of the richest land owning family in palestine, a family who earned it’s wealth by being given the throne of jerusalem in a wedding present when the patriarch of the al-huseni clan, Husayn ibn Ali married the profit Muhammad’s daughter Fatima.
The profit Muhammad owned the throne of Jerusalem after migrating from the Arabian Penninsula and conquering it from the natives.
Oh, Raj is a title. It comes from the Sanskrit word ‘raja,’ which means ‘prince.’
Raj Amin Al-Huseni was an islamic royalist, and next in line to inherit the kingdom of jersuem to rule as a king.

Ok, cool. Better bomb aid convoys then or something.
Congress arms them. It has little to nothing to do with the president.
Which was allowed under Congress’s authorization. The president can’t sell weapons to just anyone. Well unless they’re part of the Republican cult.
And you know unless he fucking wants to.
Stop trying to absolve him.

So do something about it, Christian god dammit!
Because it’s the same usa that made the illegal,war in iraq, killed millions and tortured prisoners in Abu Ghraib.
Because the primary export of the US, in terms of percentage of GDP at least, is weapons.
This is what you get for trying to help sick children.
The stupidest part for me is Israel’s explanation. The trucks were under attack from terrorists so we bombed the trucks.
“The trucks were hijacked by terrorists so we bombed the terrorists.”
Fixed it for you
so in a possible hostage situation as far as IDF claims (the hijacking), you bomb the bad guy with hostages? got it
You are talking about a nation who’s current president was accidentally shot by IDF friendly fire, while he was personally storming a hijacked airplane to rescue 60 hostages from palestinian terrorists.
So yeah they are going to take the bad guys out, even if some of the good guys get hurt.
Down voted for telling the truth. Typical…
well at least the comment has not been removed by a mod yet
-What’s the difference between pack of terrorists and humanitarian aid convoy?
-How the fuck should I know? I’m just a drone operator
“who put natural language processing in the automated targeting system?”
And why is it set to Klingon???
I still don’t truly understand how the international Community still lets this bullshit fly. How many humanitarian missions hospitals and reporters are they gonna be allowed to kill before somebody fucking does something about this?
It’s just the US and it’s brothers in colonialism at this point.
Because the US uses its Security Council veto to prevent the UN from taking action.
And Palestine isn’t in NATO.
What other international organization could intervene? The Arab League? The last time Arab countries fought a war against Israel to try to liberate Palestine, they lost. (And remember, Israel has nuclear weapons now, while no Arab country does.)
Who do you expect to do what?
Should the West and NATO invade Israel?
Pull absolutely all support and funding, permanent ban on weapons transfers, deactivate their F35s. International financial sanctions.
There are so many things you can do between nothing and full on invasion. Your question cannot possibly be in good faith.
IDF should rename
Israel Occupation Forces is becoming popular on social media.
They only need to scooch that ‘D’ in the acronym over three letters, and I think they’ll have something.
No they should have two new branch of force so it become :
Israel Colonising Force for West Bank
Israel Defence Force to defend Israel
Israel Extermination Force for Gaza
Israel is evil. News at 11
IOF Source: Trust me bro
The last time they claimed this was because the convoy had armed protection and to the IOF any presumed Palestinian with a gun is a terrorist. Investigated themselves and found no wrong doing. US agrees and sends more bombs and congratulates the apartheid state for defending itself from aid workers trying to stop the genocide.
what an interestingly worded headline.
What do you mean by this?
I guess the comment has an issue with the “fatal” in the headline, because the staff are unharmed.
Which I find weird that they are more concern with wording than the act of aurstriking.
Wow, most misleading title ever.
How so? Seems pretty clear it was humanitarian aid convoy in Gaza, and it it was Israel that launched an attack on it that killed people.
What’s your angle?
The convoy was being used to transport Hamas militants, masquerading as humanitarian aid workers (a war crime fyi). The attack targeted (and struck) only the militants.
Claiming this was an attack on a humanitarian convoy and that some random people were hit is highly misleading
Lets see the source for this. The title is not misleading for article.

The Guardian is an untrustworthy biased POS.
It says the same exact thing, except omitting the part where they talked to Anera…
Would you mind clarifying what you think is misleading in the title?
Was likely terrorists
Yeah, the IDF.
