There are four museums in Gaza, and two have been levelled, the International Council of Museums-Arab (ICOM-Arab) confirmed to Al Jazeera…
Gaza’s Tourism and Antiquities Ministry estimated that as many as 104 mosques have been damaged or destroyed since the start of the Israeli assault. This includes the Othman bin Qashqar Mosque in Gaza City’s Zeitoun neighbourhood, which was built in 1220 at the site where Prophet Muhammad’s great-grandfather is believed to have been buried…
“All our heritage sites are clearly marked, yet the Israeli military strikes, the tanks and the bulldozers continue,” the archaeologist said. “But I have faith all this will end. Even if they attempt to destroy our past, we will build back Gaza’s future.”
Wtf? I’m sorry, did Hamas send out a massive text message, phone call, and emergency broadcast announcement telling the civilians to evactuate because they were coming in hot?
No, Hamas did a surprise attack, and targeted civilians. Israel warned people and struck military targets.
Israel had been warned days before. But Netanyahu chose to ignore it, and not only that, decided to give armed forces the day off. He has blood on his hands.
