Thirteen healthcare workers were injured on Sunday in an Israeli airstrike targeting the vicinity of Hiram Hospital in Lebanon’s southern city of Tyre, the Lebanese Health Ministry said, Anadolu reports.

The bombardment also caused “severe damage after the hospital sustained damage in earlier Israeli attacks,” the ministry said in a statement.

It called on the international community to “put an end to the escalating Israeli attacks, which are expanding without regard for international humanitarian law, UN resolutions, and international norms.”

The attacks came as the Israeli army escalated its assaults across Lebanon amid daily violations of a fragile ceasefire agreement in place since mid-April.

Since March 2, the Israeli attacks have killed at least 3,371 people, injured 10,129 others, and displaced over 1.6 million others, according to the Lebanese officials.

Thoughts of the Day 22 October 2024

Spread the love

Thought of the Day was just on BBC Radio 4. I had to switch it off at the first mention of Jesus. FM, these insane God-squadders assume that they know Jesus personally. That’s part of their illness, that they assume that they’re living a divine life when often they’re just mass-murdering mass-murderers or supporters of mass-murdering mass-murderers using religion as a pretext. Is there a difference?

Anyway back to today’s Thoughts of the Day, I was intending a light one today about how things often go wrong when you’re on a deadline. I’m still isolating having caught Covid, very nearly over it now but FM can that sneak up on you when you’re not expecting it and on a deadline? That can knock you out for a week at least. Imagine you had the work’s laptop at home too because of that looming deadline. I suppose that someone could collect the work’s laptop if you put it in the freezer overnight, but how do you get it from the freezer to the front door? You can hardly leave it outdoors all night.

Then there’s a simple puncture of course – you need to race those so-important documents to the airport. They’re so important plans for World War 3. Oh FM you got a puncture, that’s a nasty big nail in your tyre. You can’t help it of course, could strike at any time and there’s no spare.

FM, you stood on your glasses, had to wear some emergency ones and all those shipping containers got sent to Ireland, Iran and Iraq instead of Israel. They could take months to get back on course.
