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.
Bruh the administration has been like… “We’re going to do war crimes”… then proceed to do what they said… and the lawyers are like “Welll maaybeee its a bit war-crimey…” while the administration is like yeah no dog we doing war crimes.
Dunno why the voters who didnt do anything when they couldve are upset that the shitty govt they got isnt doing anything. Well duh.
That’s the part that pisses me off most. If kamala would’ve won, she’d be better than trump, for sure. But beyond that, this fucker would be rotting in prison right now.
