RAFIF ESLEEM

Gaza- The people of Gaza feel the effects of the psychological, social and economic crises caused by the Israeli occupation.

Palestinian political analyst Rania al-Louh spoke to NuJINHA about the current situation in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. Stating that the Israeli shelling of Gaza continues but both the Palestinian authorities and the Israeli occupation are not interested in them, she said, “According to the statements made by well-known people, the targets of Israel haven’t been determined yet. For this reason, the Israeli air force targets not only Palestinian commanders but also civilians.”

The Israeli siege on the Gaza Strip for more than 15 years

Stating that Palestinian groups take routine military maneuvers against the attacks, Rania Al-Louh said, “The Israeli Air Force drops bombs lighting everywhere over Gaza’s airspace. They call these bombs as “Lighting bombs”. This is psychological warfare against civilians. Psychological warfare has been waged against citizens in the besieged city for more than 15 years to create fear among citizens. Their aim is to suppress people by using methods of psychological warfare.”

Drawing attention to the psychological warfare against the civilians, Rania Al-Louh emphasized that journalists have been targeted recently.
