21 injured in Israeli attacks on Gaza Strip
gazaagenciesTwenty-one Palestinians, including four children, were injured on Monday in Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip, despite a ceasefire agreement in force since last October...
An Israeli air strike near the industrial area of Khan Younis in the southern Gaza Strip killed a Palestinian and injured several others. The strike occurred in the northern part of the city, and those injured were taken to hospital.
The incident is part of a broader conflict between Israel and Palestine. One of Israel's leading human rights organizations has documented mechanisms used by Israel to "ethnically cleanse" the West Bank of Palestinians, according to NPR.
Separately, Israel's military has reacted to a documentary film, NAZA, that examines alleged mechanisms behind Israeli warfare in Gaza. The film, which won a special prize at the Venice Film Festival, includes interviews with 24 Israeli military and intelligence staff who describe how targets in Gaza were selected and how many civilian casualties were factored into attacks.
Israel's military has rejected the allegations made in the film, and the culture minister has called for the film's Oscar-winning co-directors to be stripped of their citizenship over "treason against the state", according to BBC News.
