Many Gazans cut off from world as Israel targets communications and internet networks - Euro-Med Monitor
GENEVA, Tuesday, May 18, 2021 (WAFA) - The Israeli forces targeting of the Internet and communications networks in the Gaza Strip as part of their continuous military attack for the ninth day is utterly worrying, Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor said today in a statement.
Israeli s violent bombings have severely damaged or destroyed networks, equipment and devices crucial for many communication and Internet companies, which used to operate in buildings that were unjustifiably targeted.
The attacks also targeted dozens of streets damaging utility poles which carry wires that provided Internet and communication services.
