State Dept Spox Heather Nuart robot responses always chilling
The barrage of 28 mortars was fired from the enclave earlier in the day, most of them were claimed to be intercepted by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).
The Israeli PM, Benjamin Netanyahu, blamed the Hamas organization for the recent attacks, promising to respond “forcefully” to the barrage.
“Israel takes a grave view of the attacks on it and its communities by Hamas and Islamic Jihad from the Gaza Strip. The IDF will respond to these attacks forcefully,” he said during a conference in northern Israel, referring to the Israel Defence Forces.
According to the IDF, following Netanyahu’s statement, the Israeli air forces hit at least 35 targets at the positions of the Islamic Jihad movement in Southern Gaza, which Israel believed to be behind the attack. Later the IDF stated, that the strikes it performed in Gaza Strip were the most powerful for the last four years.
The IDF listed six military compounds, munition storage warehouses, naval targets, and terror headquarters among the attacked targets.
Israeli Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman commented the issue, saying the strikes against Gaza are “only the beginning.”
“Today at midday, we massively and powerfully attacked terrorist infrastructure, including an additional tunnel, across the Gaza Strip. Hamas and Islamic Jihad have already paid a heavy price and the bill has just been presented to them. We have no intention to let it pass,” Lieberman added.
After the activation of the system IDF reported about two more missile attacks from the Gaza Strip, which were intercepted with the Iron Dome air defense system.
During the day the sirens had gone off on five occasions in the settlements along the border with the Gaza Strip — Hof Ashkelon, Eshkol, Sha’ar HaNegev, and Merchavim Regional Councils, the Ashkelon industrial area, and Sderot.
The situation on the border escalated on Monday, particularly after an Israeli tank attacked a militant observation post in response to an attempted violation of the border by two Palestinians.
The violent clashes between Palestinian protestors and IDF on the Gaza border Israel continue since the last March, when a full-scale demonstrations were organized by Hamas. Israel has justified its actions citing security reasons, saying it is defending its borders and blames Hamas for encouraging thousands of Palestinians to break through the border and attack Israelis.
Israeli naval forces have intercepted a Palestinian vessel hours after it sailed off the coast of the besieged Gaza Strip, Israeli media reported.
The boat, carrying 25 Palestinians, was transferred on Tuesday to the Israeli port of Ashdod on Tuesday, according to the Israeli army.
Those on board were attempting to break an Israeli-imposed siege for the first time in more than a decade,
and had set off with the intention of reaching Limassol, a coastal city in southern Cyprus.
Under the Oslo Accords signed in 1993, Israel is obligated to permit fishing up to 20 nautical miles, but this has never been implemented.
The widest range Israel has allowed in the past 10 years is 12 nautical miles (22km),
and at times, the limit was reduced to one nautical mile.
Boats are often limited to six nautical miles (11km), and Israeli forces regularly fire warning shots to boats attempting to breach it.
The intercepted boat had crossed nine nautical miles (16km) before four Israeli warships flanked the vessel.
Another boat did not cross the six nautical miles mark.
In 2014, Bourdain won an award from the Muslim Public Affairs Council.The world has visited many terrible things on the Palestinian people, none more shameful than robbing them of their basic humanity. People are not statistics.

Each day getting more crazier than the last...
hegemon hypocrisy and self aggrandizing pouting like I've nvr seen.

BREAKING: United States officially leaves the United Nations Human Rights Council
The UNSC might be the next to go. fun times
It doesn’t look to be about Israel to me, because in this way, they are actually bringing attention to Israel’s human rights violations in Gaza.BREAKING: United States officially leaves the United Nations Human Rights Council

She added that the US is the only country in the world that has not ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child, but separating and detaining children also breached its obligations under other international human rights conventions it has joined.amounts to arbitrary and unlawful interference in family life, and is a serious violation of the rights of the child.
I call on the United States to immediately end the practice of forcible separation of these children.
The U.S. should immediately halt this practice of separating families and stop criminalizing what should at most be an administrative offense — that of irregular entry or stay in the U.S.
Amnesty International’s Americas director called the “spectacularly cruel” practice “nothing short of torture”: https://www.independent.co.uk/news/...xico-children-families-separate-a8407106.htmlThe thought that any state would seek to deter parents by inflicting such abuse on children is unconscionable. I call on the United States to immediately end the practice of forcible separation of these children.
People do not lose their human rights by virtue of crossing a border without a visa. I deplore the adoption by many countries of policies intended to make themselves as inhospitable as possible by increasing the suffering of many already vulnerable people.
