Testimony collected by Agence France Presse says Israeli soldiers fired on a crowd in Gaza during a food distribution on Thursday, February 29. Analysis of the 19/20 information set by Béligh Nabli, university professor of public law and Middle East specialist.

Béligh Nabli, university professor of public law and Middle East specialist, recalls that there are “precedents” in which “the Israeli army’s versions of such situations have been refuted by independent investigations.” He cites in particular Al-Chifa Hospital, which was portrayed by the Israeli army as “Hamas headquarters” and “which turned out to be a hospital with civilians in it.” According to the specialist, the IDF “does not escape martial law.” “When we communicate and we are a state at war, our communication is actually propaganda,” he explains.

Famine in Gaza “caused by blockade that violates international law”

“Finally, the real reason for this tragedy is the context in which it occurs, namely that the people of Gaza are suffering from famine and that famine is not a natural phenomenon, it is not caused by a natural disaster.” “It is caused by caused a blockade that violates international law and constitutes a war crime, a secured blockade imposed by the Israeli army,” continues Béligh Nabli, who considers “that his responsibility in this regard even in relation to the tragedy “overrides the factual version.”
