Israel’s Ramadan offensive: more bombing, more starvation, more humiliation
The social media provide more – and more accurate – information about what’s happening in Gaza than the mainstream press – as always.
Bearing in mind that Palestinians in Gaza were assured by Israel that Rafah was a safe haven from attack, here’s a clip of the aftermath of Israeli bombing there:

Among the buildings destroyed in last night’s bombing raid across the whole of Gaza was the headquarters of the Palestine General Federation of Trade Unions:

Despite being ordered to do everything possible to protect civilians, the Israeli occupation forces continue to murder children at will:
I can't believe no-one is doing a damn thing to stop Israel's psychopathic murderous insanity. https://t.co/zIINBhu8yA

And in order to prevent citizens of Gaza from receiving medical aid, hospital staff have been tortured and humiliated:
The torture of Palestinian medical staff during an IDF raid on Nasser Hospital in Gaza brings the Israeli siege into further breaches of international law.
Israeli forces continue to act with impunity and the full support of US and UK governments.https://t.co/IT8tHXry5B

That isn’t all. This is an offensive fought on several levels. Israel has ensured that famine is now sweeping Gaza – and the numbers dying of starvation are rising to meet those killed by bullets and bombs.
We – we the United States, we the U.S. taxpayers – are helping to literally starve kids to death. https://t.co/kALJN2Yypl

And if you think the killings and tortures are limited to Gaza – think again.

Individual bombings alone are appalling and should cease immediately.
Looking at the broader picture where Bakeries, Hospitals, Schools, UN Bases etc have been targetted, it definitely shows a deliberate malicious destruction designed to cause maximum death and suffering to Gazans of all ages.
