'Clear targeting of children'

Middle East Eye18-03-2025

Yosri al-Ghar, a survivor of the overnight Israeli bombardment, said the air strikes killed his pregnant sister, her husband and three of their children. Their fourth child is in serious condition.
He described the area as once being considered safe, far from the border, where life had been normal.
"The strike was direct, with no warnings," Ghar told Middle East Eye outside the war-battered Nasser hospital in Khan Younis.
"It was a clear targeting of civilians, including children. The attack was absolutely barbaric."
He expressed deep frustration over the lack of global response.
"There's no world, no Arab world, or even Islamic world, speaking out. If a kitten were killed, the world would have protested, but instead, the silence is deafening."

Medical charity says Gaza office building targeted by Israeli strike

The NGO Medecins du Monde has said that an Israeli attack on one of their Gaza offices "constitutes a serious violation of international humanitarian law". In a statement, the charity said at least eight people were killed in the attack on the building in Deir al-Balah on Tuesday. "Medecins du Monde had informed the Israeli military of the presence of its office, which had officially been declared 'deconflicted', or shielded from Israeli military attacks under humanitarian coordination agreements," it said. "However, as during previous Israeli attacks, the team received no forward warning that would have allowed it to evacuate the building or take measures to protect anyone inside," it added.
