21 Gazans said wounded by Israeli fire as thousands riot on border
2019-03-02
[IsraelTimes] Thousand of Paleostinians protested along the Gazoo border on Friday with some rioting and clashing with Israeli troops, a day after the United Nations
...an organization conceived in the belief that we're just one big happy world, with the sort of results you'd expect from such nonsense...
released a report accusing Israel of potential crimes against humanity for its response to the weekly riots.

Some 8,000 Paleostinians took part in the protests and some burned tires and threw, bombs, rocks and grenades at Israeli troops guarding the security fence, according to the army

Soldiers responded with tear gas and in some instances live fire, the army said.

The Hamas, a regional Iranian catspaw,-run health ministry in Gazoo said 21 Paleostinians were maimed during the festivities by Israeli fire.

This week’s riots came a day after the release of a report commissioned by the UN Human Rights Council on Israel’s handling of the festivities that alleged there is evidence Israeli soldiers committed crimes again humanity.

"The Commission found reasonable grounds to believe that Israeli snipers shot at journalists, health workers, children and persons with disabilities, knowing they were clearly recognizable as such," it said.

The Sherlocks specified that there were reasonable grounds to believe that Israeli troops killed and injured Paleostinians "who were neither directly participating in hostilities, nor posing an imminent threat."

It said more than 6,000 people were shot by military snipers using live ammunition during the period investigated, with 189 killed.

The UN team also dismissed claims by Israel that the protests were aimed to conceal acts of terrorism that have included shootings, grenade and kabooms, Molotov cocktails and breaches of the border fence.

"The demonstrations were civilian in nature, with clearly stated political aims," the statement said. "Despite some acts of significant violence, the Commission found that the demonstrations did not constitute combat or military campaigns."

The report was strongly denounced by Israeli leaders, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu saying it set "new records in hypocrisy and lies."

"It is Hamas which fires rockets at Israeli civilians, bombs and carries out terrorist activities during the violent demonstrations on the fence," he said

The inquiry investigated possible violations from the start of the protests on March 30, 2018, through December 31.
