Israel-Gaza war: UN says staff member killed in Gaza
A member of the UN's safety team was killed in Rafah on their way to a hospital, the agency says.
The United Nations says one of its staff members was killed and another injured as they travelled to a hospital in southern Gaza on Monday.
It said the workers were travelling in a UN vehicle to the European Hospital near Rafah when it was struck.
The UN did not mention who it thought was responsible for the attack.
The Israeli military said an initial inquiry indicated the vehicle was struck in an active combat zone and it had not been made aware of its route.
Footage posted on social media and verified by the BBC shows a marked UN vehicle with multiple bullet holes outside the European Hospital.
You're viewing a single thread.
The Israeli military said an initial inquiry indicated the vehicle was struck in an active combat zone and it had not been made aware of its route.
How about the IDF just stops shooting at or bombing any vehicle that has a UN logo on it.
I mean that would just make sense, right? Right??
The UN provides humanitarian aid to the Palestinians they are intent on starving to death. Israel wants them out.
and it had not been made aware of its route.
As if that's an excuse, seeing as when people do notify them they end up getting killed.
You're presuming this was IDF without evidence to that effect
To me, the wording of the Israeli statement implies it was them, though of course it's not 100% certain. If they had even the flimsiest proof to pin it on Hamas they would go public with it immediately.
Seeing as the IDF, or Israeli Defense Forces, encompasses all 3 branches of military ... the use of IDF is appropriate.
And you're presuming it was one of those three branches without evidence to that effect. Lot of presuming going on here.
So you're saying that Hamas may have specifically targeted a UN vehicle, something they've never been found to have done since Oct 7?
A quick reminder that the IDF has been found to have targeted clearly labelled NGO vehicles, killing people who were simply trying to feed Palestinians.
Hamas: paragons of virtue, they'd never do something so uncouth as to target foreign nationals or innocents.
I'm saying you shouldn't make up a story without evidence and you should save your outrage until the facts are in. It's not complicated. You don't know what happened. Stop pretending you do.
You are clearly eager to blame Israel without evidence.
I'm the one making up a story??
Ok then. I'm setting a reminder for when this is updated and you and I can revisit this convo.
Yes, yes you are.
Don't bother. They will never see the light. They will continue to perpetuate hatred and violence for centuries to come. They can't handle ANYONE not believing in some form of Islam.
