Hamas Slams Israel’s Onslaught on Education of Gaza Students
News - Middle East: The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas says the international community should pressure Israel to end its genocidal campaign in Gaza which, among other things, has been depriving thousands of students of education.
In a statement released on Monday, Hamas said schoolchildren are deprived of education for a second year.
It said the denial of 630,000 students of their right to education is a "deliberate violation of all rights stipulated by international law, which leaves the international community and UN agencies responsible to put an end to these crimes."
Hamas said this crime "will not break our people’s will, or erase their identity or take away their national rights."
“The Israeli war against schools and educational workers and facilities will not succeed in erasing our children’s Palestinian identity. These crimes will only be met with more perseverance by our people.”
This week marks the back-to-school season across the region, but not for thousands of students in Gaza. Students in the occupied West Bank began their new school year on Monday, while students in the Gaza Strip face a second consecutive year without attending school.
