"Our Village Has Become a Ghost Town": a Distressing Phone Call From Gaza
30.7.14
"Our Village Has Become a Ghost Town": a Distressing Phone Call From Gaza: Raed, 31, knew that his cousin had been killed by an Israeli sniper in Gaza earlier that day, leaving behind a wife and six children. Muhammad, who was aged 36, is the ninth member of Raed’s extended family to be killed since the Israeli assault on Gaza began.
Images of Raed’s home village of al-Qaraqa fill the screen. We see desolate, emptied streets; towering above them are the half-standing skeletons of bombed-out buildings.
The on-air reporter has gone along with a few brave workers from the Palestine Red Crescent Society who have entered the village to retrieve the dead and search for the injured. Muhammad was one of those killed.
