Rigs to to see Gaza be bombed
Locals in Sedrot, which is the nearest town of Gaza on the Israeli side, all day gathered up on a hill with a good view of Gaza which is only six to seven miles away. Some claps and nods when it has seen a hit in Gaza.
Some have moved old furniture out and put to remedy that before a football game. But what is happening right in front of them now in the evening hours, a bloody reality. Drumming of the bombs that fall inside the Gaza Strip thundering in his ears, while the flames of the explosions lit up the night sky dark. The city is half empty. Many have chosen to go away.
Effective missile protection
Meanwhile, Hamas has sent several rockets toward Israeli towns nearby. For just half an hour ago did the Israeli missile protection to destroy three of them. The result proved that explosive flash of light over the heads of the local population in Sedrot. Many clapped and cheered for each rocket was destroyed.
The population of the city has been so trained in rocket attacks that they could hear from which side the rocket arrives. Only those who know that the rocket ports in their neighborhood, going into shelters.
- Start invasion
Most local state that Israel's ground invasion should start sooner rather than later.
- That you would also have the desire for your neighborhood in Norway had received as many Gaza rockets in the head like us, one of them Aftenbladet.no.
Several have taken the children with him to behold what is happening a few miles away.
No answers in Gaza
Aftenblad team has multiple contacts inside Gaza. But every time we try to call, we only get an answering machine with the message that we have called the wrong number or that person is not available. But it may perhaps be due dålig connections right now than isolated data lines.
Almost all public roadways in and around Gaza are closed. Journalists are asked to leave the lookout heights with regard to that it was too dangerous for us there.
It felt unreal and absurd to stand on the 'safe' distance and knowing that every bombshell could cost lives in the narrow and crowded neighborhoods where 1.5 million people are trapped in the cold world's largest prison.
- I weep for my friends in Gaza, said one of the camera men to Aftenbladet.no while he zoomed in on the explosions over Gaza kveldsimmel.
Ground Invasion coming
No one we have talked to believe that the Israeli government will save Gaza. They think it's just a matter of hours or days before ground forces enter. Throughout the day there has been intense transport of tanks and other war material into the Gaza Strip.
The Israeli authorities have assured that the only bombs military store and Hamas offices and quarters, but even Sedrots residents looking height seems to believe the assurances.
Tonight someone will die
It goes against the night over Gaza. It will be a long night, and someone is going to die
