Palestinian man protests Israeli bombing of Gaza at fundraiser in UK
ANKARA (AA) – A Palestinian man who lost his family members in the Gaza bombing confronted UK lawmaker Angela Rayner at a Stockport fundraiser.
“I lost my family in Gaza,” shouted the aggrieved man who had lost his mother, brother, and nieces in the Israeli war on Gaza. The man added choking with tears, “I need my mum”, as a police officer was seen dragging him out of the venue.
The man confronted Angela Rayner, the deputy leader of the Labour Party, and questioned how any party, including the Labour Party, could fail to demand a cease-fire when the Israeli genocide has killed over 26,000 Palestinians.
Israel launched a deadly offensive on the Gaza Strip since an Oct. 7 Hamas attack. The Israeli response has killed 26,083 Palestinians and injured 64,487 others. Nearly 1,200 Israelis are believed to have been killed in the Hamas attack.
The Israeli war has left 85% of Gaza’s population internally displaced amid acute shortages of food, clean water, and medicine, while more than half of the enclave’s infrastructure has been damaged or destroyed, according to the UN.
