BRUSSELS, (PIC)-- Tens of European lawmakers, who visited the Gaza Strip during this month, started their moves to convey the suffering of Gaza people to their parliaments and peoples in order to force their governments into ending the Israeli blockade imposed on them.
In a statement, the European campaign to end the siege said Tuesday that the lawmakers submitted reports to the speakers of their parliaments in their respective countries in order to put them in the picture of the disastrous impacts of the blockade on all aspects of life in Gaza.
The lawmakers expressed in their reports their dismay and shock at the silence of the international community over the unjust Israeli siege and slammed it for not responding to the Goldstone report, stressing that this silence is participation in Israel’s crimes against Gaza people.
British MP Gerald Kaufman, who led the delegation, had said during his visit to Gaza that all members of the delegation agreed to make a series of moves especially in the European parliaments in order to raise the issue of Gaza siege and prevent any new war on Gaza in light of the Israeli threats.
In another context, a Palestinian medical sources said Tuesday that two European medical delegations arrived Sunday in Gaza and conducted several major surgeries in the hospital of Nasser in Khan Younis.
He said that the doctors conducted surgeries of bone, hand and peripheral nerves in addition to plastic surgeries.
