MP Jamal Al-Khudari, the head of the popular anti siege committee, has called on the international community to intervene and curb the escalating Israeli military attacks against the beleaguered Gaza Strip.
The independent MP said in a press release on Sunday that Israel was escalating its military attacks on the besieged enclave and was targeting civilians.
He said that Israel was threatening an invasion of the Strip, which necessitated a serious international stand to block such schemes.
Khudari said that the shortest road to peace is granting the Palestinian people their rights, ending Israeli aggression and blockade, and establishing a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital on the 1967 borders.
The lawmaker reiterated his assertion that the blockade on Gaza Strip was illegal and unethical and is tantamount to mass punishment. He charged the siege was targeting innocent people in their sustenance, education, health and all life sectors, demanding an immediate end to the siege.
