Belgium has summoned the Israeli ambassador to condemn the bombing of the country’s development agency in Gaza, the Belgian foreign ministry has said.
The Israeli assault has taken place after the Belgian Government announced not to suspend funding for the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA) on Wednesday.
Belgium has decided to wait for the results of UN investigations into the possible links between some UNRWA staff and Hamas, according to Belga News Agency.
“Belgium will put the issue of compensation for the damaged infrastructure of projects financed by the EU and its Member States back on the agenda of a subsequent European consultation,” it also warned.
The problem with this particular war is that Hamas purposefully and in mass uses civilian shield. They do not care that civilians will die, in fact it is absolutely obvious and predicted and calculated outcome of their incursion into Israel. The only way for Israel not to kill civilians was not to react at all, which I think was not an option for them. Any attempt to avoid killing Hamas because of the potentially greater civilian casualties leads only to Hamas using civilians even more and in greater number, leading to even more deaths in future.
Can you link evidence of Hamas using human shields? I can only find the IDF doing that.
