Palestinian women and children, living in Damascus held a “sit-in strike” before the United Nations headquarters, to express support for the struggle of their fellow citizens, living in occupied Palestine.
The sit-in was organized on the occasion of the International Children's Day.
The protestors took the opportunity to call on the international community to do more in support of the “defenseless Palestinian children”, over 200 of whom have so far been “massacred by the war criminal, racist-Zionist” Premier Sharon, during his recent military incursions into Palestinian cities, towns and villages, IRNA reported Tuesday.
The Palestinian women and children called for putting Israel’s Prime Minister on trial at the International Court of Justice as a “war criminal”. They also called for the “speedy return” of all Palestinian refugees to their motherland, based on United Nations Resolution 194. (Albawaba.com)
