Israel steps up attacks on ambulances and civilians in Lebanon despite ‘ceasefire’

Israel has stepped up its illegal attacks on civilian infrastructure in Lebanon, despite a ceasefire agreement which mediators from Pakistan say includes Lebanon.

Beirut is under attack. Bombs going off all around us, multiple strikes across many parts of the city. Can’t post footage now for obvious reasons but people are desperately trying to find a place of safety.

100 strikes in 10 minutes across Lebanon. This is a clear message that…

Reports indicate that 50 Israeli fighter jets dropped 160 bombs on various parts of Lebanon, all within one minute.

Israel has not hit Lebanon this hard since 1982.

Israel also targeted an ambulance in Qlaileh, southern Lebanon. The attack killed four paramedics.

An ambulance was just targeted in Qlaileh, Lebanon.

Netanyahu’s office:

“The United States has told Israel that it is committed to achieving these goals, shared by the US, Israel and Israel’s regional allies, in the upcoming negotiations.”

In Beirut alone, the death toll today has already risen to 500 after only half a day of the Zionists carpet-bombing the city.

Israel is murdering Lebanese people while they mourn.

False pretences

As usual, Israel’s standard excuse for bombing brown people is ‘defeating terrorists’. In this case, in Lebanon, it’s ‘defeating Hezbollah’. Of course, everyone with even half a working brain can see that’s bullshit.

Remember that Hezbollah, just like Hamas, would not exist if it weren’t for Israel’s illegal invasions.

Meanwhile, Israel bombs hospitals, ambulances, and other civilian infrastructure, in clear contravention of international law, and gets away with it.

And guess what. The IOF is lying. I was caught in the middle of it, and not for the first time. One man I was just with pulled a three-year-old girl from a building judt before it collaped. Hundreds are feared desd, hospitals struggling to cope. Tbid is terrorism.

Hezbollah was formed in 1982 after Israel illegally invaded Lebanon. Its main foundational goal was to fight the Israeli occupation of southern Lebanon. The group’s resistance to Israeli occupation was instrumental in the IOF leaving Lebanon in 2000, after 18 years.

Armed resistance is not illegal under international law. A United Nations General Assembly resolution states:

The General Assembly,

Reaffirms the legitimacy of the struggle of peoples for independence, territorial integrity, national unity and liberation from colonial domination, apartheid and foreign occupation by all available means, including armed struggle;

Israel and the West have labelled both Hezbollah and Hamas as ‘terrorist groups’ and called for their disarmament – when they’re only defending the land they are native to.

Hezbollah abided by the ceasefire agreement, whilst the Zionist entity did not.

Israel is the only true terrorist state – it combines the barbarity of no holds barred terror tactics and civilian targeting while relying on the modern state’s monopoly on violence and the modern state’s weapons. https://t.co/pEqQHOJLf9

Senior Iranian officials have told Al Jazeera that it will ‘punish’ Israel for ‘crimes’ it has committed in Lebanon.

The Zionist entity is committing constant atrocities with zero consequences. As usual, the goal is to destroy any chances of a lasting ceasefire. Because that way, Israel’s ‘greater Israel‘ project becomes all the more realistic.

‘God’s chosen people’ are sure causing a lot of death and destruction, which seems a little bit like the opposite of what a loving god would want for its people. Either Israelis have a very weird definition of god, or they’re simply using their religion as an excuse to bomb the shit out of brown people.
