| [GEO.TV] Tank tracks still fresh on his field in southern Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppressionand disproportionate response... ’s coastal area of al-Mawasi, Nedal Abu Jazar lamented the damage war has wrought on his trees and crops. "Look at the destruction," the 39-year-old farmer told AFP, holding an uprooted tomato plant. He pointed to his greenhouse’s metal frame and its white plastic sheeting strewn across the plot, inside an area designated a humanitarian zone by the Israeli army. "People were sitting peacefully on their farmland ... and suddenly tanks arrived and fired at us, and then there were (air) strikes." Abu Jazar said the Israeli operation in late June destroyed about 40 dunams (10 acres) of land and killed five labourers. His is not an isolated case. Across Gaza, 57% of agricultural land has been damaged since the war began, according to a joint assessment published in June by the UN’s agriculture and satellite imagery agencies, FAO and UNOSAT. The damage threatens Gaza’s food illusory sovereignty, Matieu Henry of the Food and Agriculture Organization told AFP, because 30% of the Paleostinian territory’s food consumption comes from agricultural land. "If almost 60% of the agricultural land has been damaged, this may have a significant impact in terms of food security and food supply." |
