He smiles in the courtroom… on the other hand, sorrow and tears… These are the two sides of the coin that emerges from Israel. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu appeared to testify in his trial where he is accused of corruption. The head of the Israeli government denies having broken the law.
He appears every week in Tel Aviv District Court on three corruption charges that include accepting gifts from his millionaire friends in exchange for favors, as well as influencing a television station to give positive coverage of his activities. Despite his legal troubles, this does not stop him from ordering attacks on the Gaza Strip.
In the Palestinian enclave, 53 people were reported killed in Sunday's bombings. Breaking a two-month ceasefire, Israel resumed its offensive in Gaza on March 18 with the stated aim of destroying Hamas and freeing hostages held by the group. But what it is destroying mainly are the lives of innocent civilians. The death toll has been added to 17 Palestinians killed in attacks in recent hours.
"They want to destroy Gaza, and here we are, unwavering. We are unwavering against them. They kill us? It's not a problem. They starve us? It's not a problem. What do you mean? They impoverish us? It's not a problem. There's no flour? It's not a problem. We will eat paper and stay here, at home," says Mazen Kwaraa, a Palestinian resident of Gaza.
This young mother hugs her baby for the last time… with tears in her eyes she asks for the “hell” to end. Gaza was not the only target.
Israeli warplanes also bombed the outskirts of Beirut in Lebanon. The attacks came after the population had been notified by an evacuation order. Authorities reported no injuries, although ambulances and fire crews were seen in the area of the explosion. Israel claims it targeted a building used by Hezbollah as a warehouse for high-precision missiles. (A2 Televizion)
