UNSC addresses situation in the Middle East and Palestine

United Nations, Aug 30 (Prensa Latina) The UN Security Council (UNSC) will dedicate an information session and consultations behind closed doors to the situation in the Middle East, including Palestine, following new Israeli bombings over Gaza.

A few hours ago, according to press reports, the Israeli army bombed the Gaza Strip for the umpteenth time, an attack that coincides with increased protests to condemn Israel´s blockade against Palestine and the increase of West Bank colonization.

Health authorities revealed that clashes at the demarcation line injured 11 Palestinians, three of them hit in combat.

According to the Israel Defense Forces, their airstrikes over the weekend were allegedly targeted by the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas).

Meanwhile, Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum blamed Israel for the new escalation and stressed that it is a consequence of the tightening of the blockade against Gaza and the subsequent humanitarian crisis.
