Geneva - The Israeli army has killed 94 university professors, along with hundreds of teachers and thousands of students, as part of its genocidal war against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, ongoing since 7 October 2023, Euro-Med Human Rights Monitor said in a statement issued on Saturday
According to Euro-Med Monitor, the Israeli army has targeted academic, scientific, and intellectual figures in the Strip in deliberate and specific air raids on their homes without prior notice. Those targeted have been crushed to death beneath the rubble, along with members of their families and other displaced families.
Yeah, but the article in the OP says the reason they’re dying (at a higher chance than ‘normal’) is because they’re specifically targeted with bombs being thrown from airplanes.
To me it seems highly unlikely that they know exactly where these people are located to an extent they can effectively single them out with bombs, as I’m reading 80% of all Gazans are currently displaced. And subsequently, if they did, their casualty rate would be much higher
