International opinion is crucial to Gaza's salvation
Protest that could convince world leaders to act in line with world opinion and force peace on Israel is now a matter of life or death for us, writes the Palestinian People’s Party DR AQEL TAQAZ

AFTER 36 days of Israeli aggression and genocide against the Palestinian people in Gaza, more than 11,000 people have been killed, at least 70 per cent of whom were women and children.

The Israeli occupation forces have bombed civilian homes, hospitals, mosques, churches, schools, and entire neighbourhoods with white phosphorus, which is illegal under international law.

Even the UN installations and premises have been targeted and destroyed, with scores of UN employees killed in the process — not to mention tens of health workers and journalists.
