the Civil Defense in Gaza condemned on monday,  in the strongest terms the Israeli army’s continued assassination of its crews in the Strip, rejecting the misleading Israeli allegations.

In a statement, the Civil Defense in Gaza denounced the allegations and allegations published by the occupation army to justify targeting the Nuseirat Civil Defense Center and described it as a “terrorist complex”, stressing that the Civil Defense is a humanitarian service work.

The statement also denounced the continuous Israeli attempts to distort the role of civil defense and its noble humanitarian goal, adding: “To falsely justify to the world its claims of targeting our crews, and to ignore that its army destroyed most of our headquarters and vehicles since the early days of the war, and prevented our crews from practicing their work in the northern Gaza Strip, which indicates its absolute rejection of the existence of any humanitarian or medical services.”

The statement asked: “What justifies the occupation army targeting our teams 17 times while they are working inside the buildings it bombs and during child rescue operations? Are these places considered terrorist gatherings that should be targeted?!”

The Civil Defense stressed that its centers and the places where its crews reside are known to humanitarian organizations, and all of them are open places where relief teams sought refuge after they were destroyed by the occupation army.
