As the military had warned, combat operations continued otherwise. Health officials in Gaza said Israeli strikes killed at least 38 Palestinians from late Saturday into Sunday, including 23 seeking aid. An airstrike on a Gaza City apartment killed a woman and her four children. Another strike killed four people, including a boy, his mother and grandfather, in the eastern Zaytoun neighborhood.
These “humanitarian pauses” merely serve to provide the barest cover for the deliberate mass starvation of the Palestinian people. The images of emaciated skeletal figures have aggravated the mass revulsion and anger felt among the populations of Israel’s imperialist allies, and increasingly among the Israeli population itself. Such “pauses” in the livestreamed genocide are intended to provide the governments of the respective countries with sufficient justification to continue arming Israel and supporting the slaughter.
Basically “it looks too much like a genocide so we have to look like we let aid in but not too much so they remain weak and suffering” at this point.
Thanks for the “minimal” aid asshole
This time they’re sure to act trustworthy.
Hey! I have that same pot!
