Israel Strikes Tent Hospital in Gaza: Kalam Digest 11

This week we saw harrowing images of Gazans literally burning alive when Israel struck a makeshift hospital in Northern Gaza. One person was in a hospital bed hooked up to an IV when the flames engulfed and ultimately killed him.

Why are we seeing this brutal escalation, and how is this affecting the front in Lebanon?

Israel demanded that the UN peacekeeping troops in Lebanon be removed "from harms way", after several UN soldiers were injured as a result of Israeli fire. This request was denied by the governments of France, Spain and Ireland.
