Two more #US officials resign over #Biden administration’s #genocide in #Gaza, accusing the administration of lying about Israel’s obstruction of aid to Palestinians
Two Red Crescent paramedics were murdered by #IDF while they were working in #Rafah last night. Their ambulance was hit directly and intentionally.
Of course the usual excuse by IDF is that there were #Hamas fighters in the ambulances. Ignoring that injured fighters are not legitimate targets, specially if they are inside an ambulance receiving care.
Algeria’s UNSC resolution calls on Israel to halt Rafah offensive immediately
"The draft text demands a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, the release of all captives held by Hamas, & essentially orders Israel to cease military its operations in Rafah:
"... that Israel, the occupying Power, shall immediately halt its military offensive, & any other action in Rafah”.
The US has "shielded Israel by vetoing 3 draft council resolutions".
“They are permanently, constantly, fleeing for their lives, from one danger zone to another. And they’re not fleeing randomly – they’re going to the areas that Israel directed them to go to ‘for their own safety’. Then they are being attacked.”

“For those who haven’t yet been hit by explosive weapons fired directly into civilian areas, they are suffering the slow, agonizing effects of starvation. Children’s mental and physical health is being pushed beyond breaking point, as they suffer unimaginable mental harm from the violence, serious physical injuries, including the loss of body parts, and the loss of families, homes, and their schools.”
Xavier Joubert, Save the Children
"The @LemkinInstitute reiterates our condemnation of the use of #starvation as a weapon, we are appalled by the current #famine occurring in #Gaza. As one of our recognized patterns of genocide, man-made famine that is used to weaken or destroy a group is known as #Genocide"

Thank you everyone using the #genocidejoe hashtag for recognizing that the bomb Israel dropped in #Rafah was sold to Israel in September, 2008, by the Bush administration.
The Israeli regime army issued a statement this evening (Wednesday) claiming that it has gained operational control over the axis known as "Philadelphia" on the border lines of occupied Palestine and #Egypt.
Remember the BS talks by Al-Sisi, #Biden, #Sunak, #Macron and other assholes about the red lines in Rafah?
None of them lifting a finger about the slaughter of the innocent Palestinians who are stuck in #Rafah with no where to go.
"A CNN report said American GBU-39 bombs were used in deadly attack on designated safe zone for Palestinians"
"After geolocating the footage, explosive weapons experts confirmed that remnants of the American-manufactured GBU-39 diameter bomb (SDB) were present"
