Gaza laments deadly start to Ramadan, amid funerals and debris
2019-05-09
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] After two sleepless days and nights of Israeli shelling and Paleostinian rocket fire, Gazooks on Monday faced a first day of Ramadan overshadowed by funerals and the grim task of pulling bodies from collapsed buildings.
Life is tough. It's tougher if you're an extended tribe of truculent butt holes.
As dawn brought a ceasefire of uncertain duration, few Paleostinians in the impoverished coastal enclave were focusing on the sundown feast that is traditionally the highlight of the day during the Moslem holy month.

At Gazoo City’s largest hospital, Shifa, relatives of the 21 Paleostinians killed on Sunday - including 12 civilians - arrived to collect bodies for burial and prayers.

Outside, workers set about rebuilding power and phone lines devastated by the Israeli bombardment, which also razed entire tower blocks, leaving rubble strewn across the ground.

Other babus government employees lined up at banks to draw out money they had been unable to collect during the hostilities.

#1  A couple of days ago I asked about which part of Ramadan was when all the killings and bombings happened. Looks like I have an answer!
