"Jews have murdered more than 30 Palestinians in Gaza since Monday (an average of 6 per day). One was a leader of the small, Hamas-allied Popular Resistance Committees, Raed Abu el-Foul, plus his wife. An Israeli missile blasted their white sedan.
On Thursday the Jews fired a missile at a mother, her son, and a relative in a donkey cart near Beit Lahia, Gaza. All three were blasted to bits, plus the donkey. Marim el-Rahel, her son Mansour and one other family member.
Today Jews destroyed the Hamas-run Interior Ministry in an air strike on Gaza City (below). One woman was killed and at least 30 others wounded in the blast.
Gaza has been totally sealed. “It’s completely shut down, which will add to an already dire situation,” said Christopher Gunness, spokesman for the United Nations Relief and Works Agency, which provides food to refugees.
The tightening of the already brutal blockade will make life even more difficult for Gaza’s impoverished residents. Palestinians have suffered shortages of some food, fuel, spare car parts, computer paper and other supplies since Israel imposed the siege after Hamas seized the territory in June.
While ratcheting up its military response in Gaza, Israelis have scaled back operations in the West Bank as they coordinate activities with heir puppet, Abbas. The Israelis have granted amnesty to hundreds of Palestinian gunmen there.
However some Israeli raids continue, especially in the town of Nablus. Early Friday, Israeli troops in Nablus killed a Palestinian from the Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, an armed group tied to Abbas’ corrupt Fatah movement.
Mahmoud Zahar, Hamas leader in Gaza, accused Abbas of collaborating with the Jews.
Hamas' supreme leader Khaled Mashaal, speaking from his base of exile in Damascus, said Israeli raids on Gaza made Hamas less likely to negotiate any truce with Israel.
