Not a lib

I need to be really careful here not to tread into any anti-vaxx territory here but this is just sus af. Why would they take a break from the mass-murder of children to ensure those same children are vaccinated against polio?

Not to mention that the vaccine is going to be administered by the UN - an organisation who have lost nearly 400 employees during this holocaust. Why would the Zionist entity suddenly change their tune and say "Oh, right this way, come on in!"

Is it a photo op? Are they legit worried that polio will spread to their soldiers?

There must be some ulterior motive, right? This just doesn't make sense. WTF is going on here?

(btw be warned there's lot of brainworms antivaxxers in the Twitter comments there, god damnit they make me so mad)

here's your answer

Along with the ongoing shelling in various parts of the Strip, these Israeli military attacks have coincided with the peak of families’ movement with their children towards the designated vaccination centres. Some of these attacks have even targeted locations near the vaccination centres, endangering the progress of the vaccination process that is required to stop the poliovirus from spreading among Palestinian children in the besieged enclave.

Following its initial attacks, Israel is still targeting Palestinian clinics and hospitals where Palestinians are supposed to go for children’s vaccinations. The most recent incident took place at the Baptist Hospital in Gaza City on Saturday 31 August, leaving three Palestinians killed and numerous others injured.
