Gaza must be helped out of "hell" -- EU envoyand
Israel must lift its ban on materials to rebuild Gaza after its offensive in a territory resembling "hell" where children have to sleep outside shattered homes, the European Union's Middle East envoy said on Tuesday.
"What encouragement to terrorism would it be to rebuild the sewage system, have clean water, have kids going to school, have clinics that work, have mothers delivering their babies in safe conditions?" Marc Otte asked following Israel's devastating 22-day assault in the Hamas-ruled territory.
"I hope we see flexibility soon because it's not acceptable to simply say to people that for political reasons they and their children have to sleep outside."
