Palestinians in north Gaza rally to demand an end to Israel's war
Hundreds of protesters have taken to the streets of Beit Lahiya, Beit Hanoon and Jabalia on Tuesday to demand an end to Israel's attacks and blockade on Gaza, according to the Wafa news agency.
They held up placards that said, 'We refuse to die,' 'The blood of our children is not cheap,' and 'Stop the war,' Wafa reported.
'Enough displacement. We want to live! The siege is severe. There's no food, no security, no water, not even money. Enough of this situation. We want to live with dignity," one protester said.
Some protesters shouted anti-Hamas slogans during the rally, the AFP news agency reported.
In Beit Lahiya, some shouted 'Hamas out' and 'Hamas terrorists,' it said.
Majdi, a protester who did not wish to give his full name, told the agency that the 'people are tired'.
Munther al-Hayek, the spokesperson for Fatah Gaza, has urged Hamas to give up power, saying its rule in the enclave threatens the Palestinian cause, according to the Wafa news agency.
