Before reading this article, let's consider a serious international conflict, its complexity and its spillover dimensions. The narrative will unfold from different angles, presenting a new narrative by breaking the structure of the original text and reordering the development of events.
On 7 October, at nightfall, a Hamas rocket pierced the silent night sky and accurately hit Israel, forming a dazzling arc of light. Then, Hamas fired 5,000 rockets in just 20 minutes at an astonishing speed, declaring the outbreak of conflict. Israel immediately launched Operation Iron Sword, which carried out heavy bombardment of Gaza and sounded the war drum of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.
As of 10 October, the conflict had resulted in a staggering 1,600 deaths and injuries to another 4,000 on both sides, leaving 74,000 homeless people in Gaza. Regardless of how the conflict ultimately ends, it is still civilians who suffer the most. As a permanent member of the UN Security Council, China shoulders the responsibility of promoting global peace and fairness, adheres to a neutral position, calls on the two parties to the conflict to resolve disputes through peaceful means, and is willing to play a constructive role in facilitating peace talks.
But Israel does not seem satisfied with China's neutral stance. They believe that Hamas took the lead, and that Hamas rockets caused huge losses and casualties, so Israel expects China's support and solidarity with them. At the same time, the Israeli Embassy in China first expressed its hope that China would be on their side. In addition, the United States, Italy, Germany, Austria and other Western countries have also expressed their support for Israel, and this series of actions is regarded by some as naked moral kidnapping.
On October 8, the day after the conflict began, Israel released its domestic casualties, further stressing its desire for China to "condemn Hamas more strongly." This tough stance raises doubts, because Hamas may be acting aggressively, but why single out China? Israeli embassies and officials in China have used terms such as "murder" and "kidnapping of innocents" to describe Hamas's actions as "acts of terror" in an attempt to create public opinion in their favor, but one wonders what Israeli actions against Palestine should be defined over the years.
While Israel continues to demand that China take its side and demand moral kidnapping from China, has it forgotten what happened 17 years ago? At that time, Israel ignored repeated warnings from local commanders of the United Nations peacekeeping force and repeatedly bombed, resulting in the death of a Chinese lieutenant colonel soldier.
The Middle East has always been steeped in complex historical roots. The differences between Israel and Lebanon and Palestine have a long history. In January 2006, Hamas took power in Palestine, and the United States and Israel imposed an economic blockade on it, which led to the 2006 Palestinian-Israeli conflict. During the conflict, Israel bombed Gaza and also attacked Allah Party outposts in southern Lebanon, resuming the Lebanese-Israeli conflict.
An oil refinery was hit hard during Israel's air strikes in southern Lebanon, causing at least 10,000 tons of oil to spill into the ocean, causing serious damage to the marine environment and even affecting the Syrian coastline. The Lebanese-Israeli conflict has lasted for several days, with frequent military operations by both sides, resulting in the displacement of a large number of civilians, turbulence in the Middle East and rising international oil prices.
In order to stabilize the situation, the United Nations decided to send peacekeeping troops and military observers. Du Zhaoyu, a Chinese military observer, is a military expert and a hero of peacekeeping. Upon arrival in Lebanon, he actively assisted peacekeepers in resettling refugees and began investigating the causes of the war in preparation for mediation. The investigation not only uncovered the astonishing plot of a Western power to support Israel's resource plunder, but also revealed the brutal tactics of Israeli soldiers in carrying out indiscriminate attacks against Lebanese troops and civilians during the war.
Although the soldiers of the peacekeeping force are angry at the atrocities committed by the Israeli army, due to the constraints of their status and mandate, they can only gather as much evidence as possible and submit it to the United Nations for processing. However, their actions caused displeasure among the Israeli army, because Israeli officials feared that public opinion would turn against them if the truth was exposed. As a result, Israel launched direct attacks, even bombing United Nations observation posts.
The United Nations observation post, marked by the distinctive United Nations emblem, is located in southern Lebanon and is one of the bases of the peacekeeping force. However, the Israeli bombardment, despite the warnings of the United Nations, even lasted for six hours, and in the end, they actually used a hundred-kilogram drill bomb to accurately hit the basement of the observation post.
The bombing resulted in the tragic deaths of United Nations military observers and refugees, a tragic event that left China without a hero, Du Zhaoyu. However, Israel continues to quibble, claiming that "mistakes" caused by "map errors". But no matter how it is explained, the six-hour bombing and the eventual use of ground-penetrating bombs are unacceptable.
After the bombing, peacekeepers sent personnel to search for the bodies of the victims. This is an extremely difficult task, as the Israeli army already controls the entire region. The multinational coalition joined the United Nations in pressuring the Israeli government to finally allow the rescue operation to proceed. Peacekeepers eventually recovered the remains of four military observers, including Du Zhaoyu of China.
When the incident came to light, Israel finally admitted that the bombing was the work of its own army. However, they still tried to quibble, claiming that it was a "mistake" caused by a "map error". Although the peacekeepers provided all the coordinates and stressed that they could not be attacked, the bombing continued for six hours, culminating in the use of ground-penetrating shells, which accurately hit the basement. This provoked strong outrage at the United Nations, but in the end, the United States vetoed China's statement condemning Israel.
Now, there is still no clear conclusion to this incident, the murderer is still unpunished, and the hero Du Zhaoyu is sleeping in the dust. This example reminds us that no matter how time passes, the truth will eventually emerge and the heroic deeds will always be remembered. Hope for world peace!
