Condemn Zionist Occupiers Latest Criminal Bombardment of Gaza Strip
- Nick Lin -
Israeli bombardment on Gaza May 4, 2019 kills 14-month-old girl and
pregnant woman.
The people of Gaza were once again assaulted from May 3
to 5, as the brutal 12-year siege by Zionist Israel and its occupying
military forces continues. Twenty-seven Gazans have died and at least
154 have been injured due to the Israeli assault. The aggression got
underway Friday, May 3, after Israeli forces killed four Palestinians,
two in an air raid on southern Gaza and two in an attack on protesters
taking part in the weekly Great March of Return actions near the border
fence separating Gaza from the Occupied Territories. A ceasefire was
reached on May 6 that has brought the Israeli aggression and
Palestinian acts of resistance and self-defence to an end for the time
being. It is said to include conditions that require Israel to mitigate
the siege of Gaza.
As usual, Israel justified its aggression in the name of
"self-defence" claiming two of its soldiers near the fence were
wounded by Palestinian gunfire on May 3. However, it is
well-documented that for more than a year, Israeli forces have
regularly attacked and killed unarmed protestors taking part in
the Great March of Return, as well as clearly identified medical
personnel and journalists at these protests, with utmost
disregard for human life.
This latest attack on Gaza underscores once again the
need for
all peace- and justice-loving people to stand with the heroic
people of Palestine and Gaza in their just resistance to the
illegal Israeli occupation and its war crimes.
