Israel's Use of US-Made Weapons in Gaza Attacks Sparks Outrage and International Concern
The recent Israeli attack on the al-Sardi school in central Gaza, which resulted in the deaths of at least 40 Palestinians including 14 children and 9 women, has raised significant international concerns. The remnants of the weapons used in the attack have been traced back to US-manufactured components, specifically a sensor from Honeywell, known for supplying Inertial Measurement Units (IMUs) for military applications. The repeated targeting of UN spaces by Israel has been condemned, with major rights groups accusing Israel of violating international law. The United States' support for Israel, including the supply of weapons, has also come under scrutiny. Despite criticism and reports citing possible violations of international law by Israel, the US has not taken decisive action to halt military aid. The ongoing conflict in Gaza, with Central Gaza recently facing severe bombardment, has further exacerbated the humanitarian crisis. Survivors of the al-Sardi school attack described the horrifying aftermath, with debris and body parts scattered throughout the building. Israel's justification for targeting the school based on alleged Hamas presence has been disputed, with media reports revealing the use of an artificial intelligence target system for airstrikes. The alarming civilian casualties in Israeli attacks underscore the urgent need for international intervention to address the escalating violence and human rights violations in Gaza.
