15 dead as Israeli fire hits U.N. facility in Gaza

[EagleEyes]

A U.N. facility was hit by Israeli tank shells on Thursday, killing at least 15 and wounding dozens more seeking shelter as clashes between the Israeli military and Hamas ramped up on the 17th day of the conflict.
The U.N. was attempting to arrange a humanitarian pause in the fighting in order to evacuate civilians from the U.N. school in the northern town of Beit Hanoun when it was hit.
"We were about to get out of the school, then they hit the school. They kept on shelling it," Kamel al-Kafarne said.
The Israeli military said it was reviewing the incident, and suggested Hamas-launched rockets may be responsible for the deaths, but provided little additional information.
"We can't confirm that this is a result of errant fire. In any case, we do not target U.N. facilities," military spokesman Lt. Col. Peter Lerner said, who said Israel had urged officials to evacuate the school three days earlier.
U.N. staff were among the casualties, said U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, who called on Hamas and Israel to respect "the sanctity of civilian life, the inviolability of U.N. premises."
"Today's attack underscores the imperative for the killing to stop — and to stop now," Ban said during a visit to Iraq.

And 70 children and women injured.

Savagery at best

 

[Falcon29]

Typical savages. They think they can brush off their atrocities by claiming a mortar or two were fired maybe from the same neighborhood. These IDF statements make it even worse. The IDF isn't targeting rocket launchers, they are targeting men on the ground and civilian homes.

The UN of course won't say a thing about it.

 

[Pakistanisage]

Israelis SOB's have no respect for UN. This is the typical behavior of these Arrogant Israelis.

 

[Sedqal]

That is just horrific, is there no end to their barbarity.

The IDF is already lying about the event - it is saying it gave people a "window" to leave the school but that Hamas prevented them. This wouldn't justify bombing the school even if that was true, but point is, it isn't - the IDF gave no "window" and it knew what it was bombing.

They've put out about 5 different lies since this attack. The IDF knows very well it is deliberately trying to terrorize everyone. It is killing medical employees, journalists, refugees, journalists, government employees, women and children, mental health facilities, etc....

They are out to shed blood of innocent people. This is the nature of this state and its people. No other nation would behave in this way.

Israel and Israel-Firsters’
PR methods:

1. We haven't heard reports of deaths, will check into it

2. The people were killed, but by a faulty Palestinian rocket/bomb

3. Ok we killed them, but they were terrorists

4. Ok they were civilians, but they were being used as human shields

5. Ok there were no fighters in the area, so it was our mistake. But we kill
civilians by accident, they do it on purpose

6. Ok we kill far more civilians than they do, but look at Syria!

7. Why are you still talking about Israel ? Are you some kind of
anti-semite?

8. Repeat from step 1 (Test this against the next interview you hear or
watch.)"

Very smart blokes.. Beating the terrorists at their own game.

Hamas is very clear about its tactics - it doesn't depend on Western funding and doesn't sugarcoat its message to get hypocrites in the West to like it. And the only thing the IDF is beating is children and refugees in schools. I understand you can empathize with Israel's situation. Kashmir, mass rapes and stuff.

Yep Mass rape and stuff perpetrated on Kashmiri Hindus who were butchered and driven out of their homes by Freedom Fighters. Thanks for reminding, it just teaches us why we must act more like Israel and less like emotional fools.

I don't know what the "free" India media has told you but news abroad is that Indian soldiers single out Kashmir Muslim teenagers for slaughter and women for rape.

That is called Pay-back for slaughter and rape of Kashmiri Pundits (Hindus). Kafir blood is not less worthy than a Muslim blood.

Israel is teaching the Muslim world exactly that.
