Report from Gaza: Palestinians Feel They Are Being “Slowly Exterminated” in Israel’s Genocide

Source: Democracy Now

We go to Deir al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip, where we get an update from Arwa Damon of the humanitarian organization INARA on “deteriorating conditions” as Palestinians are “slowly exterminated” by disease and starvation caused by Israel’s brutal siege. A special U.N. committee has found that Israel’s actions in Gaza are “consistent with the characteristics of genocide.” Palestinians in Gaza feel that “they are living through their own annihilation,” says Damon. “There is actually a real sense that the worst is yet to come.” Democracy Now! is an independent global news hour that airs on over 1,500 TV and radio stations Monday through Friday.
