Stop using unguided bombs in densely populated areas. Stop using poison gas. Stop killing people waving a white flag. Stop sniping people outside of a church. Stop planning and executing demolitions on universities. Stop starving people. Stop cutting water supplies.

Dang, everything I listed is widely reported on. I think I have the right to express this even on HN on an article about a genocide case.

Did you know that Israel controls a whopping 13% of Gaza's water? Maybe that wasn’t widely reported for some reason.

I assume this is fresh water pumped into Gaza. What of the desalination plants? Cutting off all fuel surely ensures that that water source is also cut off. I would not be surprised to learn that this infrastructure has been targeted for destruction.
