"Cutting water, cutting electricity, cutting food to a mass of civilian people is against international law," said EU foreign policy chief Josep Borrell in Muscat.

    You missed the point :

    Russia invades and terrorises the Ukrainian civilians. We punish Russian civilians aka collective punishment.

    Hamas invades Israel and terrorises Israeli civilians. Israel punishes Gaza civilians aka collective punishment.

    In the first case we are OK. In the second case we scream at Israel (the OP post) "Collective punishment is war crime!!"

    We. Are. Hypocrites.

      Please, by all means, inform the class what "collective punishments" Russian Citizens are currently facing that are directly equivalent to what Israel is doing.

      You won't because you're a 🤡 and you know it.

      You're missing the forest for the trees.

      I feel like if I continue to argue with you we'll end up debating what the meaning of every word.

      Blocking people's access to all food, electricity, and water is entirely different than a country banning travel from another country.
