Moscow Calls for Ease in Israel-Palestinian Crisis


Moscow Calls for Wase in Israel-Palestinian Hostilities

On the Exacerbation of Tensions Around the Palestinian Territories

An abrupt burst of tension is being observed around the Palestinian territories. After the terrorist act committed by a Palestinian suicide bomber in Haifa, Israel continues to carry out a massive operation in the Gaza Strip with the employment of dozens of tanks and helicopter gunships, resulting in considerable loss of life among the Palestinian population and more than a hundred wounded people.

Thus, the Palestinian-Israeli confrontation may flare up with renewed force. Armed attacks and retaliation lead to no results, except one - more and more of those killed, the increasing pain in the hearts of their relatives and loved ones, the accumulating feelings of despair and revenge.
