Israeli Air Strike on Gaza City
Some 300,000 Palestinians marched in the funeral procession Tuesday afternoon of 15 Palestinians killed in an air raid on a Gaza City building around midnight Monday, July 23. The funeral procession carried the bodies of the victims wrapped in Palestinian flags on stretchers, including Salah Shehada, the leader of the Hamas military wing, who was the target of the raid. "The blood of the martyrs will not be lost," and "the Palestinian people will revenge these crimes," chanted the crowd. Hundreds of masked men, firing their guns into the air, took part in the procession, which was attended by all the main Palestinian factions, including Hamas, the Islamic Jihad, the PFLP, the DFLP and PA Chairman Yasser Arafat's Fatah party. This is photo story describing everything that took place in Gaza from Monday midnight when a building in El Daraj was bombed to Tuesday afternoon when the 15 victims were buried in Gaza cemetery.
