The human situation in Gaza is a disaster. Over 5,000 Palestinians have been killed, including many children, and hundreds of thousands desperately need water, food, fuel, shelter, and medical supplies. Israel must immediately allow the necessary humanitarian aid into the region.

America must call for a ceasefire or cessation of hostilities. After forcing people in north Gaza to go south, Israel just launched enormous set of strikes on the south. This is now collective punishment. 5000+ Palestinians now dead, at least 40% children. https://t.co/6ReS3pK1HA

The West is allergic to investigating root causes. Most media, and almost anyone with any kind of power, wants you to stay far away from the origins of any problem. Because to address the core issues like racism, capitalism, and colonialism implicate the entire system.

Israel destroys high-rise building in Gaza [VIDEO]

In what many Palestinians are calling “Gaza’s 9/11,” Israeli warplanes today destroyed the 12-story “Zafir 4” residential tower in Gaza City’s Tal al-Hawa neighborhood.

This video captures the moment. It appears that the building was struck by two missiles.

The tower was part of the Zafir complex and contained 44 apartments housing about 240 people. Residents had reportedly received warnings to leave the building, but medical officials said 17 people were injured, four of them children.

Al Mezan Center for Human Rights states that the building was attacked by Israel “without giving any specific explanation that can be verified.”

It adds: “Al Mezan’s investigations indicate that no military activities took place in or around it. Hundreds of its residents; most of whom are families headed by employees of the Palestinian Authority, were displaced.”

At least ten Palestinians were killed in relentless Israeli airstrikes across the Gaza Strip on Saturday, mostly women and children, Ma’an News Agency reported.

Human rights groups have condemned Israel’s deliberate targeting of civilian homes and infrastructure, but amid international complicity and silence, it has continued the practice unabated.

At least 2,103 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli attacks since 7 July, Ma’an said.

War in Gaza: Operation Protective Edge (2014)

Operation Protective Edge (2014) is the current military operation the Israeli government is carrying out against Gaza, the third in the last six years. It began on July 8th.

To review:

2008-09: Operation Cast Lead: killed 1,417 Gazans, 13 Israelis.
2012: Operation Pillar of Defence: killed 150 to 233 Gazans, 6 Israelis.
2014-: Operation Protective Edge: killed, so far, about 1,460 Gazans (mostly civilians), 63 Israelis (nearly all soldiers). Over 250,000 Gazans have fled their homes.

Meanwhile, since 2006 Gaza has been under siege by Israel. It is almost completely cut off from the outside world. That is itself an act of war, making Operation Protective Edge merely the latest stage of a long Gazan War. Some call it a genocide.
