Mourning Beit Hanoun Buries Its Dead
BEIT HANOUN — Tens of thousands of mourning Palestinians on Thursday, November 9, lied to rest the bodies of twenty civilians, including eight children and four women, killed in an Israeli shelling of their homes in the northern Gaza Strip town of Beit Hanun.
Wrapped in a yellow flag, the bodies of the victims were born aloft on stretchers among a vast chanting crowd of mourners, reported Agence France-Presse (AFP).
Cries of "Allahu Akbar" (God is Greatest) filled the air as the bodies were placed in their graves.
"The killers in Israel, you will never be able to defeat one Palestinian child," Abdul Hakim Awad, a Fatah leader, told the gathering.
Twenty Palestinian civilians were killed Wednesday, November 8, and up to 50 others were wounded when Israel shelled their homes in the already battered town of Beit Hanun. (more)
