Sixty-eight orphaned children and eleven caregivers plus the caregivers’ families were evacuated from an orphanage in the southern Gazan city of Rafah and taken to the West Bank on Monday, according to a statement released by the German Embassy in Tel Aviv.
The embassy described the transfer as a “temporary measure during the war, taking the children out of acute danger, not an attempt to relocate them permanently.”
According to the organization’s website, the Rafah orphanage was established in 2000. On Jan. 4, the organization received the first group of five children whose parents had been killed by the Israeli offensive. The orphanage had agreed to take in up to 55 children, to join the 70 that were already under its care. In a statement announcing their arrival, SOS said that one of the children, a three-year-old girl, was brought to the orphanage by a partner agency, who found her “alone at one of the checkpoints in Gaza.”
Zero discussion of who the legal guardian of the children is.
Zero discussion of whether the legal guardian approved the transfer.
Zero discussion of why it might be a good idea to get children out of a war zone.
Maybe pro-Hamas people just want Palestinian children to die? I dunno how else to interpret the comment above.
If Israel really cared about Palestinian children, all they have to do is stop the bombing and stop restricting aid vehicles.
Hint - they don’t give two shits about Palestinian children.
If the hostages were released, the war ends tomorrow.
For how long though?
Israel’s objective is to “eliminate Hamas”, so they say. But that’s in the same sense as Putin’s effort to “denazify Ukraine”. If they released the hostages, it would be one less barrier to Israel carpet-bombing all of Gaza.

Oh, my therapist is quite happy with my progress, thanks for your concern.
Anyway, get Israel out of Palestine.
Please ask your therapist to go on Lemmy. My guess is that their professional opinion would be to severely limit time on this website.
Ha, you’re not wrong, at least regarding political topics, here and in other social and non-social media.
We are pro human rights, not pro Hamas. I wonder where you stand on the whole human rights topic though.
They have zionist brain rot, we know where they stand.
Typical pro Hamas comment.
I’m absolutely for human rights. The human right, for example, to not be taken hostage and raped to death. But I guess you believe that human rights only exist for non-Israelis?
What I don’t understand is why you think that we could undo a terrible thing which happened to one innocent group of people by doing terrible things to another group of innocent people. This only perpetuates the cycle of violence and the only winners are those who build weapons.
It also completely ignores ~80+ years of violent oppression and occupation perpetrated against the Palestinian people… But yeah let’s just pretend that they’re all just savage monsters and their attack last fall was completely unprovoked.
Lol right.
Looks like many of those parents got killed by israel
