Strikes on Bemani damaged key water reservoir for 20,000 people living in area amid a historic drought in the country
Military strikes that damaged two water storage facilities in southern Iran may constitute a war crime, military and legal experts say, after reviewing media reports and visual evidence of a 10 June strike on Bemani, a small district about 2 miles from the strait of Hormuz.
It’s unclear if the strikes deliberately targeted the district’s water tanks, or if they unintentionally destroyed a key reservoir for about 20,000 people living nearby. But if the tanks were the target, then the legal question becomes critical, Brian Finucane, a former state department lawyer, said. “It’s either a military objective or it’s a civilian object: attacking one is lawful, attacking the other is a war crime,” Finucane said.
sure, right after they get to all of Russia’s war crimes in Ukraine. Any day now. Yep.
fuck
And Ukraine war crimes against Russia? They’ve been using unmanned “killbots” which don’t have the ability to accept a surrendering soldier.
yes, to kill soldiers; russia uses drones to hunt and kill civilians.
sorry, if russia hadn’t started the stupid war they wouldn’t be in this shitty position to start with. I have ZERO FUCKING SYMPATHY for putin’s shit show, slava ukraine!
Russia does not have the capability to use unmanned drones to hunt and kill civilians. Killing a surrendering soldier is a war crime, full stop. You are just as bloodthirsty as your demented pedophile president. Good luck with all that.
