“Fuck, that was a direct hit on the hospital! That was a direct hit! I have to go now!”-Fred Ekblad, Swede trapped in Palestinian hospital being demolished by Israeli Merkavas
I’m watching live video from Gaza Strip of Israeli artillery shelling of Beit Hanoun, using U.S. built M109 self propelled 155mm guns (IDF is using U.S. made M109s, their own Merkava Battle Tanks and air-strikes to demolish entire neighborhoods). They are literally targeting every residential building in the town! It’s building demolition on a grand scale, and this is happening just a few minutes away from a supposed ceasefire!
Yesterday, the peace loving Israelis erased the Beit Hanoun hospital. It’s at least the third Palestinian hospital the Chosen People of Israel destroyed. Swedish national Fred Ekblad, who was trapped in the hospital, reported the Israeli attack to Mondoweiss as it happened: “I was standing watching TV, my friends were on the news holding a press conference and a shell from the tank hit the building and broke the glass from the window. The glass shattered from the window and I got it on my head, not only glass but concrete.”
Also, Beit Hanoun is where Israel blew up a UN school, being used as a shelter by Palestinians. UN officials reported they gave Israel Defense Forces (IDF) the grid coordinates of the schools with the understanding they would not be attacked. UN officials in Beit Hanoun told British empire news media that they called IDF trying to get time to evacuate the people, but the IDF refused to respond to the request!
“We were packing up to leave when the attack happened. We were standing outside when they started hitting us, some of the women holding their babies. My sister-in-law was one of the injured. There were bodies everywhere, most of them women and children!”-Nour Hamid, 17 years old victim of Israeli human sacrifice ritual
“All of us sat in one place when suddenly four shells landed on our heads…Bodies were on the ground, blood and screams! My son is dead and all my relatives are wounded including my other kids!”-Laila al-Shinbari, victim of Israeli human sacrifice ritual
