War: ‘They’re carrying out genocide, atrocities with impunity’ – US lawmaker says no more aid to Israel

US Congresswoman, Ilhan Omar has accused Israel of committing genocide and engaging in atrocities without facing consequences.

The Congresswoman denounced Israel’s actions in Lebanon and urged for an immediate cessation of US military assistance to Israel.

She wrote on X, “The lesson Israel has learned, time and again, is that it can commit genocide and other atrocities with near-total impunity.

“Now it’s exporting the Gaza playbook to Lebanon,” she said, noting that “Israel’s war in Lebanon is killing thousands and displacing over a million.

“No more US aid to Israel,” she added.

Earlier, Lebanon’s National News Agency reported that Israeli warplanes conducted an airstrike on the town of al-Mansouri in the Tyre district early Tuesday morning, which was accompanied by artillery bombardment of the area.

During the night, a subsequent airstrike targeted a residence in al-Hosh, Tyre, causing destruction and damage to several nearby homes.

According to the report, two injured individuals were rescued from the debris and taken to the hospital.
