Tel Aviv Ambassador in the U.S. Makes Deceptive Claim Amid Global Backlash
According to the English section of webangah news Agency, citing Mehr News Agency adn Al Jazeera, amid mounting condemnation over the Israeli regime’s strike on Nasser hospital in Gaza, Tel aviv’s ambassador in Washington made a misleading public statement. He claimed that the Israeli military is investigating this “regrettable mistake” to prevent it from happening again.
The Israeli military has repeatedly said similar attacks on hospitals or schools during its offensive on Gaza were unintentional whenever faced with global backlash.
Notably, yesterday israeli fighter jets targeted Palestinian rescuers while they were extracting the lifeless body of a journalist at Nasser Hospital during a live television broadcast.
The rescuers were removing the body of a Palestinian journalist from one of Nasser Hospital’s annex buildings when Israeli jets bombed that building for a second time within five minutes, deliberately targeting the medics.
The occupation forces committed another crime against media workers by killing Mohammed Salameh, an Al Jazeera cameraman, along with several other journalists in Gaza. This atrocity sparked widespread international condemnation.
Al Jazeera reported that with Salameh’s death, their network has lost 10 staff members as fighting began in Gaza and noted that overall 240 journalists have been killed since hostilities started.
The network described this conflict as “the deadliest battle in modern history for journalists.”
Al Jazeera strongly condemned Israel’s actions and stated: The purposeful targeting of journalists is part of an organized campaign designed to silence truth and prevent exposure of genocide realities in gaza. The ongoing crimes against media outlets by Israel represent clear violations of international law and constitute war crimes.
