“We fear worse in the future as more paramedics, ambulance and civil defence crews will be targeted, assassinated. This means the population is doomed and the relief workers will not be able to perform their duties.

“We hope the international community, human rights organisations, and other legal organs take firm measures against the Israeli forces and the perpetrators held to account.

“Does the international community wish to see health workers stop fulfilling their humanitarian mission? If those culprits go unpunished and this crime and the Israelis continue to act with impunity, they will continue to perpetrate more war crimes and more pogroms across the Palestinian population."

Video released on Saturday by The New York Times has exposed a deliberate lie by the ISR army regarding the killing of 15 Palestinian #paramedics in southern #gaza on March 23 --

Footage contradicted Israeli claims and presented new evidence that the EMT vehicles involved in the attack were clearly marked and had their emergency lights on.

"It goes like this. Israel commits a terrible war crime. The evidence for the crime is overwhelming. The Israeli state issues a pack of lies, which the Western media eagerly laps up. In some cases, the lies are comprehensively debunked, but the rebuttal is either given coverage which is inadequate and lacking in prominence, or simply ignored by many Western media outlets. Rinse and repeat"

BattleLines with Owen Jones · Israel lied about its murder of 15 paramedics and rescue workersBy Owen Jones

#WarCrimes of #Israel in #Gaza: killing #paramedics on a rescue mission.

»“The door opened, and there they were – Israeli special forces in military uniforms, armed with rifles, green lasers and night-vision goggles,” Abed told the Guardian. “They dragged me out of the #ambulance, keeping me face down to avoid seeing what had happened to my colleagues.”

He was beaten, detained with his hands tied and made to lie on the ground, from where he was able to see some of what happened as other friends and colleagues arrived on the scene in ambulances and fire trucks, each one running into a hail of #gunfire. In all, eight Red Crescent ambulance crew members and paramedics, six civil defence rescue workers and a UN employee were killed. Their bodies were found alongside their crushed vehicles last weekend in a sandy pit that Abed watched the troops dig. Other witnesses have told the Guardian that some of the dead had had their hands or feet tied.«

The Guardian · ‘I heard them take their last breath’: survivor recounts Gaza paramedic killingsBy Malak A Tantesh

Even representatives of the 🔵 UN bodies like OCHA look and talk like robots. The world knows, that it's a violation of international law and international humanitarian law, but it's not possible for officials to not just express concerns but to demand actions. Their indifference comes across like it's an "ordinary war situation", when it's an overt #genocide.
I have a problem w/this demeanor.
