      Officially. In reality, the vast majority of the Gazan hospitals* from where they count the dead are controlled by the UN through UNRWA.

      *Of which there’s none fully functional, which is why we haven’t gotten up to date counts for at least a couple months. Which is 50% of the reason why the IDF specifically targets hospitals and healthcare workers, of course.

            There was a very clear and simple point. I’m not sure how it’s possible, but the fact that you don’t think there was not just means you did, and continue to, miss it.

              What is the point in claiming that Palestinian doctors are valid military targets for the IDF to murder?

                Wow, this is just a disgustingly blatant lie about what was said. At no point did they even come close to saying anything about valid military targets, let alone doctors being one.

                  You’re welcome to explain what he meant if it’s not ‘doctors are part of the resistance’.

                    I meant that the Gaza ministry of health is a part of the government of Gaza, which is what I assumed you meant by the resistance. Not every part of a government is a valid military target. Bombing doctors is a war crime and a part of genocide.
