Zaher Shabat and his brother Ayman were both arrested when the Israeli occupation forces call for all men between the age of 16-45 to get out, but they were released and asked to go home by the Israeli soldiers, in the way while they are back to their home, the Israeli soldiers patrolling in other place killed both of them by the shelling which continue for the whole night.
Beit Hanoun: From Summer Rains operation to Autumn's Clouds operation, both are the Israeli attacks targeting Gaza Strip to kill humans, demolish all standing, damage infrastructure and make life no longer meaningful. In addition, people are deprived as a result of the ongoing attack as many of the families whom are under siege have run out of food and water when the fact that the Israeli bulldozers target the water pipes that are a life giving source, cut of electricity and telephone networks in Beir Hanoun village in the northern part of Gaza .
ETHNIC CLEANSING
Umm Al Naser mosque has a different story with the siege, right after the Israeli soldier's louder speakers announced for every male Palestinian from the age of 14-45 should gather in a stadium and then transferred into holes dug by the Israeli bulldozers for investigations and interrogations ... As a result, many men who chose not to give up to the Israeli loud speakers as they decided not to be herded like cattle, fled inside the mosque instead. The Israeli bulldozers as a result came and demolished part of the mosque while the men were under siege inside the mosque. As soon as the news started to spread about the threat of killing all the people who refused to surrender under the mosque. To the surprise of the Israeli's, hundreds of Palestinian women took to the streets and headed to break the Israeli siege of Beit Hanoun mosque and helped to get out the Palestinian men who were inside the mosque. The women did it and succeeded in leading a demonstration in front of the tanks and bulldozers which were shooting very heavily on the mosque, but women's willingness and great courage was obviously stronger than the Israeli bullets. As the Israeli tanks shells fired into the crowd, 2 women were killed and 17 women were injured as well as a local cameraman, according to medical sources at Kamal Adwan hospital. The mosque collapsed shortly after the 12-hour siege ended by the help of Palestinian women with their brave determination.
PALESTINIAN WOMEN BREAK THE SIEGE!
One of the demonstrators, Umm Eyad Al Ashkar 45 years-old in an interview said: "We decided to take the streets to save the lives of our sons, even if we are women, we should have our role to the break the Zionist siege" she said as she said with a strong tone of voice as her 14 years old daughter accompanied with her to the demonstration. How many women, who live in countries in relative peace, would have the courage to stand up against tanks firing live ammunition at them? Not many! It is a known fact that most women hide behind their husbands for protection. Evidently, the Palestinian women have a strong spirit and faith filled with brave determination to fight off the ruthless, cold-blooded Israeli's who are trying to kill off all the Palestinians, from innocent children, to any one who is breathing.
CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY
The incursions continue with more tension, with helicopters hovering endlessly, bombings and firing of tank shells against all related to humanity without any differentiation. In a phone interview with the director of Beit Hanoun's hospital, he said: "We know about many cases of injured victims who need help, but our ambulance drivers are no longer able to do it, as the hospital is under siege." he said.
Beit Hanoun, the area which is located in the north of Gaza Strip by the population of 30,000 inhabitants, and mostly depending on agriculture as the only source for income for it's residents. As long as the attack keeps going till this moment, the numbers of people being killed is increasing from minute to minute, and now, over 50 people were killed and more than 230 people were injured, many of them civilians whom were killed even inside their houses. How many Palestinians should get killed before international community and the world put pressure against Israel to stop its continuous aggression against Palestinians? When will the civilized world wake up and stand up to the aggressors? As the international political leaders all talk about this atrocity against the Palestinians, why is there no action being taken?
A Palestinian child has to go through all these nightmares and horrible experiences, when child ask his mother when is this war is going to end, will you have an answer to satisfy your child's innocence?
