The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) called on the US government and the European Union to unequivocally denounce remarks made by Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, who referred to Israel’s latest military offensive in Gaza as a “genocide by Israel against our Palestinian people.”
British Prime Minister David Cameron strongly condemned the ‘’appalling attacks’’ being carried out by Hamas against Israeli civilians, reiterated Britain’s staunch support for Israel in the face of such attacks and underlined ‘’Israel’s right to defend itself from them.’’
WJC President Ronald Lauder: ‘’If it were your cities under attack, we know you would agree that a sovereign government has a duty to defend its citizens.'
Over 500 targets have been hit since start of Operation Protective Edge; IDF targets infrastructure sites used by Hamas's senior commanders; army strikes infrastructure used by organizer of failed beach raid.
Senior source says ''not a single Hamas brigade commander has a home to go back to,'' hints that some long-range rockets may be hidden under large civilian buildings in Gaza.
he European Union condemned ‘’the indiscriminate fire into Israel by militant groups in the Gaza Strip’’ but at the same time deplored the ‘’growing number of civilian casualties, reportedly among them children, caused by Israeli retaliatory fire.’’
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) expressed solidarity with the government and people of Israel as hundreds of rockets are being launched from Gaza and threatening millions of civilians.
For second time on Tuesday evening, Gaza terrorists launch rocket at central Israel; air raid sirens sounds in Jerusalem, central Israel; Tel Aviv opens public bomb shelters; no injuries reported.
