The bombarded Gaza Strip is expected to be the subject of a vast offensive in the coming hours or days. The death toll is also rising in the West Bank, where it now stands at 44 dead.

Day of anger at the end of prayer, Friday October 13 in Al Bireh (West Bank). The meeting took place in front of an Israeli military base. Not everyone here shares the ideas of Hamas, but everyone is in solidarity with the civilian population of Gaza. “It’s terrible what’s happening there, I can’t describe it. We’re here to be with Gaza, we’re the same people”confides a man.

37-year-old woman killed by settlers

The demonstration was dispersed with tear gas and live ammunition. Injuries were reported in Al Bireh, and several deaths in other towns in the West Bank. Before this day of anger, 30 Palestinians had already died in the West Bank since the Hamas attack.

Among them, Randa Ajaj, a 37-year-old woman killed Thursday by a group of Israeli settlers while driving home. Her husband was driving after dark. He slowed down in front of what he thought was an Israeli army roadblock.
