The International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) has now weighed in on the hospital situation in northern Gaza.

In a statement, it warned that hospitals in the Palestinian enclave have "reached a point of no return", risking the lives of thousands of people.

The ICRC said its staff attempting to deliver medical supplies had witnessed "horrendous" scenes, and described the destruction as "unbearable".

It also highlighted attacks on children's hospitals, including Al-Rantisi, which we've been reporting on today, saying they had "not been spared from violence."

The humanitarian organisation, which is the guardian of the Geneva Conventions, repeated its demand that hospitals and healthcare workers, under international law, must be protected.

Not being sarcastic. Hamas puts tunnels around hospitals. When they pop out of them and shoot at Israelis WTF do you want them to do? Shooting back is a good idea.

I want them to not bomb kids. Bombing kids is what terrorists do. If you want to kill someone in a tunnel, go in the tunnel. You don’t bomb kids. You don’t bomb hospitals.

Only if you ignore the women and children being shot.

Doesn't say that drama queen.

Says the person who read my previous comment as instructions.

From laughter after reading your tripe

[-] gregorum@lemm.ee 9 points 2 years ago

Because innocent women and children dying is so funny to you?

[-] Rapidcreek@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago

Because your idiocy is so funny to me. You have no applicable life experience and have to lay out your sympathy cards just to create a sentence

[-] braxy29@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

there's no "applicable life experience" that justifies genocide.

I’m an idiot because I think innocent women and children getting killed is a bad thing? What “life experience” are you even talking about?

[-] Rapidcreek@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago

Do you get a prize for the number of times you write "women and children"?

[-] gregorum@lemm.ee 7 points 2 years ago

Makes it hard to keep ignoring them, doesn’t it?

[-] Rapidcreek@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago

No I ignore it just fine. I just marvel at your lack of language and thought.

[-] gregorum@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

If I lacked language and thought, I wouldn’t have gotten you to admit that you’re ignoring the killings of innocent women and children. 

[-] Rapidcreek@reddthat.com 1 points 2 years ago

There's some twisted self serving logic. CONGRATS.

[-] gregorum@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

Twisted logic like ignoring the deaths of innocent women and children so you can excuse the Israelis bombing hospitals?
