Images from a camera phone


It's not just a pretty design on the ground. These marks were made by strafing fire from a Apache helicopter that was hovering 20cm over the ground as it cut down 48 members of Palestine's police force in a matter of minutes.


The walls of the Gaza police headquarters are lined with bullet holes from the helicopter gunships that struck the place. In some places, pieces of human meat and bone are still stuck to the walls.


Fishermen bring in their catch early every morning. Fishes, shrimp and crabs are all brought in and sold on the roads in front of the wharf.


This mosque was lucky to only have the top of its minaret lopped off. 23 other mosques were flattened by F-16 strikes, some when people were praying inside


The International Red Cross Building was brutally blasted by F-16 planes, in an attack that claimed the lives of 13 doctors and medical assistants


The sunrises in Palestine are breathtaking. Nuff said.


Our hotel too, was blasted by Israeli rockets. They kept some of the mortar shards. Only as big as my forearm, the largest piece weighs about 15kg at least.
