US State Department officials have identified nearly 500 potential incidents of civilians being harmed by US-supplied weapons during Israel’s military offensive in Gaza, Reuters has reported.
However, no further action has been taken on any of them, three sources, including a US official familiar with the matter, said this week.
I’m surprised it’s that low. In the first several weeks alone Israel dropped hundreds of 2,000lb bombs. “The heavy munitions, mostly manufactured by the US, can cause high casualty events and can have a lethal fragmentation radius – an area of exposure to injury or death around the target – of up to 365 meters (about 1,198 feet), or the equivalent of 58 soccer fields in area.” That doesn’t even count all the other munitions used.
This is tracked incidents. So every time Matt Miller says gets a question from a journalist and he phrase “we are investigating with Israel” is dropped this is what they are talking about. This is only for big discovered Israeli war crimes such as the bombing of WFK employees, the murder of Hind Rajab and the likes
