According to the Washington Post: “A strike on a suburb of Lebanon’s capital killed Ibrahim Aqil, a prominent Hezbollah leader, Hezbollah and Israel’s military said Friday. The airstrike on Lebanon’s capital left at least 14 civilian people dead and destroyed one residential building while also damaging another, Lebanese health and civil defense officials said. The attack also killed several other Hezbollah members, including commander Ahmed Wehbe, escalating a day-long Israeli assault on Hezbollah amid fears of all-out war. Hezbollah leader Hasan Nasrallah vowed retaliation Thursday against Israel for the detonations of electronic devices that killed at least 37 people this week and left thousands injured” [i]
This was another war crime, as the murdering of the civilians was on purpose to create fear among the Lebanese.
As Al Jazeera writes:
Imran Khan Reporting from Beirut, Lebanon: Israel knew there would be civilian casualties
“Five children were killed in this attack in Beirut yesterday.
The latest figures suggest that at least 13 people died and almost 50 were wounded, but we are waiting for a final figure to come from the Lebanese Health Ministry.
There are still people we think might be under the rubble of those buildings. This was a strike on a residential area.
Let’s compare this to the assassination of Hamas’s number two, Saleh al-Arouri, in Beirut earlier this year. That was a very surgical drone strike on a room in an office building. I was there.
Yesterday’s attack was several attacks, several drone missiles that brought down almost two buildings. Israel knew that there would be civilian casualties, and it went ahead and did it anyway. And that’s what the Lebanese are saying, that, once again, Israel is acting with absolute immunity.
The extensive conversation across Lebanon is what’s going to happen next. People here aren’t concerned about what Hezbollah does next. They are worried about what Israel is going to do next.” [ii]
As Bialik wrote: “Vengeance for the blood of a small child, Satan has not yet created“.
In a war between Hezbollah and Israel, Israel must be defeated!
Down with the Zionist monster!
