Gaza will become graveyard for Israel soldiers: Haniyeh
Tue Jul 22, 2014 07:59:08

Senior Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh says the besieged Gaza Strip will become "a graveyard for Israeli soldiers."

He said on Monday that Gazans are facing an aggressive war by Israel.

The Tel Aviv regime has launched the ongoing war on Gazans because it has failed to force them to abandon their struggle, he stated.

Haniyeh, however, stressed that "the resistance will continue."

The Hamas leader said the massacres committed by Israel show its" true nature and prove that Israel is grappling with problems of its own."

He said Tel Aviv is targeting civilians because it is not capable of breaking the equations established by the resistance fighters on the battlefield.

Haniyeh also criticized the international community’s silence on the ongoing Israeli crimes against Palestinians.

Israeli tanks and warplanes continue to pound the besieged enclave with sources saying that over 100 Palestinians were killed on Monday alone.

The latest casualties bring the Palestinian death toll to 573 from 14 days of Israeli attacks. Over 3,000 Palestinians have also been injured in the onslaught.

Medical workers are now raising alarm over a humanitarian crisis in Gaza where hospitals are running low on basic medical supplies.

The UN Security Council has expressed serious concern over the growing number of casualties in the Gaza Strip.
