Israel bombed the surgery floor of Nasser Hospital after midnight on Thursday. Six people were killed, including the surgeon on duty. I read the army’s statements in Hebrew and went through the evidence. Here is what holds up and what doesn’t.
1) The army’s first Hebrew statement uses the words for terrorist or terror seven times in two sentences. It names nobody. The English says the men were “operating” in the hospital. The Hebrew says they were hiding.
2) Three hours later the army named Muhammad Abu Ismail, the Khan Younis Brigade commander. Ynet had named a different man, Khaled Abu Anza. The army still has not said its target is dead.
3) Israel killed the previous Khan Younis commander in September, and the one before him in July 2024. It killed the Rafah Brigade commander in mid-September. Hamas refilled every post.
4) The army’s “warning” is a 37-second recording. It names five hospitals. It has no date, no deadline, and no instruction to move patients. Article 19 of the Fourth Geneva Convention requires a warning with a reasonable time limit.
5) Army Radio’s own military correspondent described the site as a Hamas interrogation facility for suspected collaborators. That is not a cell about to attack Israeli troops.
6) The dead include Dr. Rizq Abu Sha’ira, a general surgeon, and a 13-year-old. The Health Ministry counts more than 52 wounded. The hospital says the building is out of service.
Israel could have waited for this man to leave the building. Instead, it went after a hospital in the middle of the night shift, with civilians and staff there. During a ceasefire. Full 13-minute breakdown with every source on screen:
There was a time in late 2023 when people insisted on this website that Israel would never, could never, bomb a hospital, and that it was an antisemitc blood libel to suggest otherwise.
Here we are, three years and dozens and dozens of hospital attacks later.

Pleased this morning, to welcome back these two comrades Namanya Isaac and Yiga Moses from the long period of detention without trial. The two were amongst those violently arrested in Mbarara during the presidential campaigns on 7th November, 2025. Alongside comrade Jamal Mugerwa aka Zoganya, they were charged with aggravated robbery in respect of areas they had never been to. For one year and one week, they've moved between Mayuge, Jinja Remand, Kirinya and Iganga Prisons without ever appearing in court for trial. Yesterday, the two were granted bail by the High Court. (Zoganya's sureties didn't attend court, so his application was deferred) While we welcome them, the level of injustice meted out on comrades like these is beyond sad.

Activist Musiri David also apparently taken away by heavily armed operatives from his home on Salaama Road this morning. Very unfortunate times we're living in.

Israel has killed over 22,000 children in Gaza. These aren't terrorists. We're talking about kids.
Most Americans are so absolutely horrified and disgusted that our tax dollars, by the billions go to that country every single year.
That our military-produced weapons and ammunition have been used to murder kids, create over 70,000 orphans, thousands of children's with amputated arms and legs.
Report from Qantara, where Israeli forces are continuing demolitions of civilian homes and infrastructure.
On Wednesday a man documenting the destruction was murdered by an Israeli drone strike.
I will not delete my (posts). I will change tactics, but continue stating facts. We want to see a free Uganda.”
