World News
A community for discussing events around the World
Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

Funny enough, I would find this very believable if the claim had come from anyone except the IDF.
Funny what cratering your own credibility does.
Same. I wouldn't put this past Hamas at all, but I'm going to need another source.
Also, maybe the IDF shouldn’t have, you know, drove a fucking Merkava Mk 4 through the main gate of the compound and wrecked the UN base’s physical security? Just a thought.
Wasn't that near the Israel-Lebanon border? Those are blue helmet soldiers coming from many nations to observe that the border is not crossed.
UNRWA is a civil organization largely staffed by Palestinians to provide necessities like food and schools to the Palestinians.
Let's not mix up the crimes Israel commits.
Typical Israeli lies.
Sure. Just like the Hamas bases under the hospitals, the calendar which was a “Hamas shift schedule”, the bags of weapons that were stored next to the MRI machine for some reason, the “beheaded babies” and raped women (who were actually just shot by Israeli Apache helicopters), the hezbollah missile launchers located in civilian kitchens.
All Israelis know how is cold-blooded murder and lying.
Why should anyone believe a single thing an Israeli has to say?
The OP literally posted only two other posts and they're both about the lies Israel published about the 'command center' underneath Al-Shifa.
I just don't post much from this account...
Also, Ynet news is considered a pretty credible source.
CNN is also considered a “pretty credible source,” but that doesn’t mean they don’t carry water for genocidal regimes.
No, it isn't.
The IDF Spokesperson’s Unit on Thursday released a video clip from the interrogation of a Gazan staffer
Totally not a forced confession to justify attacking aid
UNRWA Says Israel Tortured & Waterboarded Staffers, Leading to False Confessions
Not just the UNRWA report: Countless accounts of Israeli torture in Gaza
IDF also said Sinwar was hiding in a tunnel surrounded by hostages and they found him collapsed in the war zone after losing a hand.
I'm sure after the literal thousands of fake reports of beheaded babies, rockets stored in vaults under hospitals, terrorists in schools, terrorists in camps, children terrorists, women terrorists, and human shields, this one totally not an IDF propaganda scheme is definitely true.
Why are they integrating unrwa workers???
