    Relatives of the doctors were told by the State Department that rescue efforts were underway, including through coordination with the United Nations and the Israel Defense Forces. Yet on Monday, the Israeli military fired on a United Nations vehicle that was traveling to the European Hospital in Khan Younis, near Rafah, killing a U.N. employee and injuring another.

    Yeah, I wouldn’t trust IDF to rescue anyone. IDF is only capable of mass murder. They are literally bombing their own civilian hostages because it’s acceptable loss. They must have gotten US playbook, not only weapons with all that military aid.

      Netanyahu is going to “accidentally” kill a US soldier transporting aid in the strip. I like to imagine the full brunt of the carrier group is deployed, but it’s going to be more finger wagging. The 3 killed in Jordan is proof, I think.
