A hospital in the Israeli town of Beersheba has been hit as Iran fired a barrage of missiles, with the conflict between the two countries continuing into a seventh day.
Iran said the strike had targeted a military site close to the hospital, not the facility itself. Dozens of people were reported injured in several locations across Israel, including near Tel Aviv.
After visiting the Soroka Medical Centre on Thursday, Israel’s Defence Minister Israel Katz said Iran’s supreme leader “can no longer be allowed to exist”.
Meanwhile, Israel’s military said it had targeted Iran’s nuclear sites including the “inactive” Arak heavy water reactor and Natanz facility.
Oh the irony.
While Israel’s Defence Minister Israel Katz told reporters: “Khamenei openly declares that he wants Israel destroyed - he personally gives the order to fire on hospitals.”
The irony is so rich indeed.
May they get what they deserve.
Israel calls the attack “criminal” but had no problem levelling hospitals in Gaza…
Now that they are fighting people who can actually retaliate, maybe more people will realize they don’t want to die for something that means nothing to them. The brainwashing is bad, though, so probably not for a while, if ever.
Oof
I feel bad for the half of Israelis who don’t support the genocide and war.
The rest deserve to reap what they sow
Whoever justifies this - shame on you. I feel sorry for every innocent soul going through this - Israeli, Palestinian or Iranian. We are all brothers and sisters. Eye for an eye will make the whole world blind.
Israel is currently genociding an entire nation of people. There ain’t no “eye for an eye”
Not justifying. Just running out of empathy after all the Gaza shit. Sorry.
Well, Israel and its allies provided a lot of statements that justify attacks on hospitals.
As the BBC reported, there is military and intelligence sites nearby, which is consistent with Irans claim of having targeted legitimate military targets. I guess the Israelis should be condemned here for using their hospitals as human shields, like they have accused their targets of, usually falsely.
I hope that as little Civilians as possible get hurt, however the attacking nation crying wolf about collateral damage, after butchering Civilians in the tens of thousands during the past years and well before that too, cannot help but raise an eyebrow. This comes especially as many people in the Israel civilian population have cheered on massacre against Civilians.
You have to be special kind of a scumbag to intentionally bomb hospitals full of innocent people.
Iran is also bad.
This is the only sane take. Bombing hospitals is a war crime for a goddamn reason.
There is simply no excuse for this, both sides should be held liable for their war crimes.
it will be considered a war crime
but it’ll boil my blood when she the countries who defended and sponsored the Gaza genocide will come out to declare Iran bombing a hospital a war crime and will cooperate with the ICC (or appropriate body) to prosecute Iran.
because bombing all the hospitals in a country is fine, but one is Israel does it
If we want to hold Iran to account for this one war crime and Israel to account for its thousands of war crimes, that sounds like Justice, yes. Lets do Israel first.
