Israeli air strikes target densely populated residential complex in northern Gaza town, killing and wounding scores

An Israeli attack on Beit Lahiya, a town in northern Gaza, killed at least 73 Palestinians on Saturday evening, according to the enclave’s government media office.

More than 100 others were wounded and several people missing.

Israeli air strikes targeted a multi-floor building and damaged a number of nearby houses, medics in the Gaza Strip reported.

The government media office said that Israeli forces had bombed overcrowded residential areas in Beit Lahiya, adding that women and children were amongst the casualties.

    Holy crap, you’re right

    However the request for the warrants must yet be approved by ICC judges.

    They really need to speed things up…

    Plus that means the US sanctioned the ICC for just requesting an arrest warrant

      Exactly. To be precise they sanctioned the prosecutor who requested the warrant IIRC.
