A lot of people really, really need to learn what is and isn't a war crime. Civilian infrastructure being used for a military purpose is fair game, so if you're storing military hardware in a civilian area, that area loses it's protection.

What about militant israeli settler colony outposts which were ruled illegal and have recently been ordered to be immediately be fully dismantled and vacated by the UN?

Settling occupied territories is itself a war crime (Article 49 of the Geneva Convention)

Ironically, I wasn't aware of that.

There's a compelling argument to be made that a settlement like that is inherently an occupying force, even if they aren't being used to store weapons.
