Palestinian Ambassador to Russia: “Israel unlawfully uses banned weapons in Gaza Strip”

14.01.2009 13:16

During his interview to “Moscow’s Echo”, Afif Safiya, Ambassador of Palestine to the Russian Federation, accused Israel of unlawful using of banned weapons in Gaza Strip.

It’s absolutely obvious that Gaza stands out as a military lab, where banned weapons can be freely used, including white phosphor. I witnessed its awful annihilating effect on a video-tape, where a couple of kids suffered from this stuff.

According to Mr. Safiya, the vast majority of more than 900 victims in Gaza is children, who have not even turned 14. Moreover, resulting from the ongoing Israel’s military campaign more than 4000 people are heavily wounded, while 500 persons remain in critical condition.

To remind, the present war stage was launched by Israel on December 27, 2008 and was mainly reduced to air-strikes and massive bombardment of Gaza Strip right up to January 3, 2009, when Israeli contingent crossed the Strip’s boundary and invaded the enclave. As it was officially announced, this military campaign was aimed at preventing Israel’s territory from mortar rocket strikes, made from Gaza.
