To mark International Children’s Day, Palestinian children were taught that Israel deliberately targets and murders them, Palestinian Media Watch reported on Tuesday.

In the Nov. 21 episode of the children’s program “The Best Home,” which airs on official P.A. television, host Walaa al-Battat said: “Unfortunately—and this is a very painful thing that I want to tell you about—a number of friends have lost their right to live because the occupation is deliberately killing the Palestinian children, and this is a very painful thing.”

The same claim was made during an official P.A. TV news broadcast the day before by a reporter stating that Israel murders Palestinian children in “random summary executions,” according to PMW.

“There is no security for their [Palestinian children’s] lives that are threatened by danger at every moment. Every one of them—on the road or at home—is a candidate to be the next martyr,” said the reporter.

The new non-stop service comes amid burgeoning relations between Jerusalem and Buenos Aires.
European allies have angered U.S. President Donald Trump by refusing to allow American forces to use their military bases during the war against Iran.
“This decision... places Argentina... at the forefront of the free world in the fight against the Iranian regime of terror and its proxies,” said Israel’s foreign minister.

One girl was severely injured in the four volleys that targeted the country’s most populated area hours before a major holiday.
Israel’s foreign minister condemned the attack as “part of the strategy of war crimes committed by the Iranian terrorist regime.”
“Israel is coordinating closely with UNIFIL to reduce risk” while “Hezbollah is exploiting their presence,” the Israeli ambassador to the United Nations told the U.N. Security Council.
