Once again, we witness a real-time war crime being committed by the Israeli army, and the world seems indifferent, oblivious, and unresponsive.
Just a few hours ago, the Israeli occupation army deployed an AGM-114 Hellfire missile, also known as the R9X through a drone, in the yard of Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza, resulting in disturbing and graphic scenes of bloodshed that were captured on video. Here was the bloody moment, the missile hit the yard.

“Warning: Graphic content”
At least one person lost his leg in this attack. Here is another angle for that young man who lost a limb in a few seconds.
According to Palestinian activists and journalists, the Israeli army targeted the hospital’s yard next to the journalists' tent, close to where live stream cameras are mounted. People were sleeping as you can sleep.
The hospital yard has already been transformed into a shelter for internally displaced Palestinian families, including those of the injured.
Here is another video showing the moment the hospital yard was hit.
The Hellfire R9X is an American air-to-ground missile, a variant of the Hellfire missile featuring a kinetic warhead with pop-out blades instead of explosives.
Commonly known as “Ninja missile”, the R9X has six blades flying at high speed, to crush and cut the targeted person.
It is designed allegedly for precision strikes against specific human targets. Its notoriety grew when the US military employed it to track down prominent Al-Qaeda figures, including Ayman El-Zawahary.
It is not the first time the Israeli army has used that type of similar weapons. In 2018, during the peaceful protests of “The
Great Return March” which was organized by Palestinian Poet Ahmed Artema at
the border fence, Israel fatally shot over 200 people and left 10,000 others
injured.
The Israeli forces used a novel type of ammunition called the
"butterfly bullet," which detonates upon impact, causing extensive
damage to tissue, arteries, and bone in the targeted individuals.
The Israeli army claims that the Hamas leadership is located beneath Al-Shifa hospital, which has been refuted as a false claim.
I think we saw in the videos that those who had their legs cut were simply Palestinian civilians who thought that they would be safe in the hospital!!
Non-Muslim Non-Arab doctors from Western countries who worked at this hospital were the first to deny these allegations, but the international community seems to be unresponsive.
Both the Palestinians and Hamas have called on the UN to inspect the hospitals to verify the truth of the Israeli allegations, but their pleas have largely gone unheard, and these hospitals remain largely undefended.
Here's a copyedited version of the paragraph:
Thursday evening alone, the Israeli army, often referred to as the "most moral" army in the world, launched attacks on four Gaza hospitals in a single night. First, they targeted Al-Rantisti Children's Hospital, rendering it inoperable.
It is like an inferno !! The Israeli army used white phosphorus missiles against the children’s hospital.
Then they directed their attack towards the Awada Hospital.
And yes, this is the “fire belt bombing”.
Then we had the attack on Al-Shifa hospital.
According to the health officials in Gaza, it is only a matter of hours before all hospitals in Gaza will be out of service.
The number of victims in Gaza and West Bank killed by the Israeli attacks reached 10,966 people in addition to 28,500 injured. According to the official numbers, 10,818 people have been killed so far in Gaza including 4,412 children and 2,451 women.
This week, Gaza's only psychiatric hospital became non-functional after sustaining damages due to an attack on 5 November.
According to the UNRWA, there 50,000 pregnant women are in Gaza, with over 180 giving birth every day.
Unfortunately, the Israeli army won't stop.
