The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) released drone footage that it said showed armed “terrorists roaming and shooting” next to marked UN vehicles at the facility in eastern Rafah on Saturday.

She stressed that UN staff had evacuated the compound prior to Saturday, leaving behind some vehicles and food aid. She said under no circumstances should anyone have or use weapons in a UN facility.

A review commissioned by the UN said Israel had not provided evidence to back up the claim, but it found that Unrwa should improve its neutrality, staff vetting and transparency.

    I mean, if the IDF started shooting from UN facilities, and dressing in clothes which’d make them indistinguishable from civilians, you can guess exactly what would happen.

    Fighting war criminals is hard. But considering the numbers, the IDF are pretty darn good at it By comparison to the rest of the world.

      It’s amazing… any time the IDF has done anything bad in this entire war, I’m told it’s actually Hamas’ fault.

      Israel has the most blameless, innocent army that has ever existed. Every single member is highly moral and upstanding.

        Every member? Nah. But you can bet relative to most of the world’s armies, they’re really good.

        Also maybe if so many people keep telling you that the condition Hamas created are horrible and it’s mostly their fault… Maybe listen?
