The emotional scars of war are evident on the children faces. Picture here: Palestinian child (right) visibly shaken cries after a hearing massive Israeli explosion of nearby underground tunnel complex that shook the ground near her location. Above her a pair of Israeli F-16’s scream overhead.
The war between Israel and Hamas terrorists are taking its emotional toll on children.
Both sides in the conflict have been urged to stand down and give peace a chance. For the children’s sake!
So far, nearly 1,650 people have been killed and about 9,000 others injured by the Israeli regime’s offensive against the terrorists organization Hamas relentless rocket attacks on civilians and non military sites in Israel.
With civilians and non combatants trapped on both sides in the middle.
By some estimates over over 400,000 of Gazans, nearly one out of four, have been displaced.
In the meantime Tehran University Professors, staff and students blasted the UN secretary-general for his inaction vis-a-vis Israel’s ongoing atrocities and massacre of the Palestinians in Gaza, and urged Ban Ki-moon to comply with his duty as the head of the world body to stop Tel Aviv’s ongoing bloodshed in the besieged enclave.
“It has now been nearly four weeks that the small blockaded of Gaza that is being destroyed through the vicious and inhumane forces of an occupying regime,” the academics, personnel and students of Tehran University said in a statement issued Saturday night.
Massive explosion of Hamas militant attack site near residential neighborhood in Gaza – sends debris flying everywhere. Reports suggest windows were busted out in homes and businesses for a quarter mile around the immediate blast site! Almost 50 persons reported killed and more injured in this one airstrike alone on Friday August 1, 2014
“This devastating attack from the air, from the sea by naval ships relentlessly firing bombs and rockets, and from land by artillery and armored vehicles, has resulted in an enormous number of innocent men, women, and especially children, being critically wounded and killed,” it continued.
Also being under reported in all this is the terrorist organization Hamas using the ceasefire to launch attacks and rearm themselves. And their despicable use of human shields against Israeli retaliation from rocket attacks.
