GAZA (Palestine Foundation Information Center) The Government Media Office (GMO) in the Gaza Strip has strongly denounced the Israeli assassination of al-Maghazi mayor Hatem al-Ghamri, calling it a “war crime aimed at increasing the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip.”
In a statement on Tuesday, GMO mourned martyr Ghamri, describing him as a public service official who had assumed his national duties to the fullest and provided services for the citizens in the al-Maghazi refugee camp in central Gaza from the first day of the genocidal war on his people.
GMO said that the Israeli occupation army committed a cowardly act when it bombed, with no prior warning, the building of the joint services council, killing mayor Ghamri along with a group of civilians.
GMO called on the world’s municipalities to condemn Israel’s crime against mayor Ghamri and held the US administration and the international community fully responsible for his death due to the green light they provided for Israel’s atrocities in Gaza.
On Monday evening, the Israeli army bombed a building in the al-Maghazi camp, killing mayor Hatem al-Ghamri and four civilians and injuring others.
