Israeli naval ships attack children on Gaza beach, killing four

Wednesday July 16, 2014 19:19 by Celine Hagbard - IMEMC News

An Israeli naval ship fired multiple artillery shells at children on a beach in Gaza City Wednesday, killing four children between the ages of 9 and 11, and wounding a number of other children.

Reporters for AFP and the Guardian witnessed the attack, which took place near a hotel where the few foreign journalists in Gaza are staying.

The children were identified as Ahed Atef Bakir, 10, Zakariya Ahed Bakir, 10, Mohammad Ramiz Bakir, 11, and Ismail Mahmoud Bakir, 9. Neighbors report that they were brothers and cousins, helping their father/uncle with a fishing boat.

Peter Beaumont of the Guardian witnessed the shelling of the children, and said that after the first shell struck, and survivors were rushing for cover, Israeli naval forces fired a second shell at the survivors.

He described the attack as follows: “The retaining wall of Gaza's harbour sticks out into the Mediterranean about 100 metres from the terrace of al-Deira hotel, base to many of the journalists covering the conflict in Gaza. The first of the artillery shells came in a little after 4pm on Wednesday as I was writing on the hotel's terrace.

“There is a deafening explosion as it hits a structure on the pier, a place we have seen hit before, where fishermen usually store their nets. Behind the smoke, I see four figures running, silhouettes whose legs are pumping raggedly. They clear the smoke. From their size it is clear they are a man and three young boys.

“Where the harbour wall ends and the beach starts, there are a few brightly coloured tents and chairs for beach users in more peaceful times. The four figures jump on to the beach and begin running towards us and the safety of the hotel.

“Only afterwards do we discover there are four others who are dead, all children, lying on the wall. I am shown a picture of one of the dead boys, his skin scorched and bruised. Their names are released later: Ahed Bakr, aged 10; Zakaria, 10; and two other boys from the Bakr family, both named Mohammad, aged 11 and nine.

“The second shell catches the survivors as they reach the brightly coloured tents. As it explodes, my colleagues, now standing by the terrace wall, shout at unseen Israeli gunners who can't hear them: ‘They are only children.’

The Israeli military said it would investigate the attack. But previous investigations by the Israeli military of its own soldiers’ conduct have never found them to be in violation of Israeli or international law, despite flagrant evidence of violations.

Israel steps up genocide against Gaza population

 [ 16/07/2014 - 09:25 AM ]

GAZA, (PIC)--

At least 205 Palestinians were killed while some 1535 sustained wounds  in the barrage of Israeli airstrikes stepped up in Gaza over the past few days.

All of the casualties' names feature in a moment-by-moment account provided by a PIC team at the scene.

The military offensive culminated in the destruction of dozens of civilian homes, agricultural lands, and mosques.

Palestinian medics said more casualties arrived to Gaza hospital cut into shreds. Seven citizens were killed while dozens have been left wounded in an Israeli strike that rocked civilians' homes west of Rafah and south of Khan Younis.

A Palestinian youth was cut into shreds after he was targeted with an Israeli drone rocket while he was on his way to the mosque to perform Al-Fajr (dawn) prayers.

An Israeli jet blasted the house of female MP in the Palestinian Legislative Council, Jamila Al-Shanti.

Three more homes were razed to the ground in a round of Israeli strikes cross the Strip. Injured civilians have been rushed to al-Shifa hospital due to a similar attack on al-Zaytoon neighborhood, southeast of Gaza.

Muhanad Taysir Sharab and Ata al-Amour were killed by Israeli rocket fire that hit a number of homes and lands south of the Gaza Strip.

A Palestinian youth arrived dead to Al-Aqsa Martyrs hospital in Dair El-Balah following an Israeli rocket attack on an agricultural land in the region.

In an earlier incident Tuesday evening an Israeli raid took away the lives of two civilians, left dozens of citizens severely injured, and reduced several homes to rubble.

The casualties were rushed to Abu Youssef al-Najjar hospital as the Israeli artillery rocked their car travelling across Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip.

Scores of homes and agricultural lands near Khan Younis and Rafah have been turned into ruins in the process.

Severe injuries have been documented among a peaceful Muslim congregation gathering in a nearby mosque in Khan Younis to perform their prayers.

An unspeakable massacre fell upon Gaza as spates of air raids have been mass-murdering 205 civilians so far and destroying dozens of homes across the Strip in no more than 10 days.

House of Hamas official Mahmoud Zahhar destroyed in Israeli aerial attack

[ 16/07/2014 - 08:22 AM ] Mahmoud Al-Zahhar

GAZA, (PIC)--

An Israeli warplane bombed at dawn Wednesday the house of Mahmoud Al-Zahhar, a member of Hamas's political bureau, in Gaza city, with no reported casualties.

Local sources told the Palestinian information center (PIC) that an Israeli fighter jet fired three missiles at Al-Zahhar's house south of Gaza City, which destroyed it completely and caused considerable damage to neighboring houses.

In an earlier incident, the houses of other Hamas officials were also bombed in Israeli air raids on Gaza at a late hour on Tuesday night.

According to Quds Press, the bombed houses belonged to Hamas-affiliated lawmakers Fathi Hammad, the former interior minister, and Ismail Al-Ashqar.

Another airstrike also destroyed the house of senior Hamas official Nahed Abu Odeh in Beit Hanoun district, north of Gaza.

Israel resumes airstrikes on Gaza

[ 15/07/2014 - 08:22 PM ]

OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)--

Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu and war minister Moshe Yaalon directed their army to resume the round of airstrikes on the Gaza Strip under pretext of Hamas rejection of ceasefire proposals.

Israeli military reporter working for Channel 2, Roni Daniel, quoted a political Israeli source as claiming: "Hamas rockets came as a response to the cease-fire initiative."

The Israeli Yediot Ahronot newspaper said, quoting a military source, "the fire-backs of the Palestinian resistance have become just unbearable."

Al-Qassam Brigades vowed to stand their ground against Israeli raids on Gaza civilians.

"No official party or mediator has consulted us over the alleged ceasefire bid", al-Qassam statement pointed out.

"If what has been circulated is true, this initiative means kneeling and submissiveness and so we firmly refuse it. To us it's not even worth the ink used in writing it. We will remain forever faithful to the blood of our martyrs. "

The Islamic Jihad Movement slammed the Egyptian ceasefire truce as one that is not up to the aspirations and needs of the Palestinian people and resistance.

"We will continue to defend our people against such a wave of Israeli aggressions...No party or person will force our Al-Quds Brigades to adopt such a truce tender", they said.

The Bridges' spokesperson Abu Ahmad said the initiatives have not been serious so far.

The popular resistance committees said any truce agreement should be signed following the terms set by the Palestinian resistance, calling on the Arab and Muslim masses to rally round the Palestinians throughout their fight for freedom.

The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine said Abbas's adoption of the initiative is a unilateral act of decision-making.
