Israeli snipers shooting at ‘every moving object’

As we reported earlier, Israeli snipers killed at least 21 people in Khan Younis in the south of Gaza, where displaced Palestinians were gunned down trying to reach Nasser Hospital.

Al Jazeera’s Hani Mahmoud, reporting from Rafah, says that Israeli snipers are surrounding the area of Nasser Hospital and “shooting at every moving object” as people are trying to reach it from the two densely populated residential neighbourhoods from the eastern and the western part of the hospital.

“The area around the hospital is very dangerous, and it has turned into a combat zone,” he said, noting that the hospital area is the only place right now in Khan Younis that has some water left.

If there were any journalists left in Gaza, I wonder what is going on there... Where are all those journalists gone?!? Do I need to leave an (/s) or the sarcasm is obvious enough?

It seems like all those journalists are being also targeted by the most moral army in the world, I wonder why...

Targeting journalists and preventing them from showing what is happening in Gaza is part of the dehumanization effort of Israel to portray Palestinians as a faceless crowd.

And the fact that Israel is getting a pass is just showing how biased and hypocritical our society is.
