Israel’s military campaign in Gaza seen as among the most destructive in history, experts say

JERUSALEM (AP) — The Israeli military campaign in Gaza, experts say, now sits among the deadliest and most destructive in history. In just over two months, the offensive has wreaked more destruction than the razing of Syria’s Aleppo between 2012 and 2016, Ukraine’s Mariupol or, proportionally, the Allied bombing of Germany in World War II. It has killed more civilians than the U.S.-led coalition did in its three-year campaign against the Islamic State group. The Israeli military has said little about what kinds of bombs and artillery it is using in Gaza. But from blast fragments found on-site and analyses of strike footage, experts are confident that the vast majority of bombs dropped on the besieged enclave are U.S.-made. They say the weapons include 2,000-pound (900-kilogram) “bunker-busters” that have killed hundreds in densely populated areas.

There is now an article discussing the recent attacks utilizing a chemical agent on Colombia University’s grounds.

The article interviewed a victim of the attack that had to seek medical attention after the fact. She is still experiencing the affects of it more than three days after being sprayed with the substance.

Layla and other students have reported that the school is not taking this seriously, other than banning the unidentified (to school admin, the victims have already identified their assailants!) perpetrators from the campus. Accommodations are not even being given to victims that have had to go to the ER and are suffering debilitating symptoms.

I’ll be keeping a lookout for Layla. She lost multiple family members in the IOF bombardments across Gaza, and now she has to deal with this! Colombia University’s administrative staff, President..whoever else needs to have some heavy pressure applied to them for such obvious injustices.

A little girl died from hunger in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, despite being in the area where aid trucks are distributed. Another family in the north in Gaza city was forced to eat a donkey, which for many in Palestine is inconceivable culturally. Bisan says there isn't even water (clean OR dirty) for them to drink or wash with.

I was at a Palestinian solidarity gig last night & the one Palestinian artist who was going to perform had COVID so the organisers asked around to see if there were any Palestinians who'd like to say a few words instead.

A local guy who was born & raised in Gaza offered to speak. He started with "I'm an engineer. i'm not a poet or a politician. I don't... do public speaking… I had no idea what to say when I came up here. So i'm just going to tell you about the street I grew up on."

And then he did! He went down the street building by building. He told us about the ice cream shop on the corner, the grocery shop, the charity that supports people with intellectual disabilities. He told us about the people who he knew growing up, the families who still live in the different houses. He told us about the university buildings and about his friends who quit being accountants to start a band together. All on that street.

All of which is gone now, by the way. Bombed to dust.
