Description


According to Amnesty International: "Several workers of the al-Nasser food supermarket were injured when the store was destroyed by three airstrikes on and around it one evening in early April, neighbours and witnesses told Amnesty International. One of them told researchers: “There was no reason to bomb this place. This was a food store. We found nothing but food items in the rubble. The workers were injured and the food was wasted, a real shame at a time when people are struggling to put food on the table.”" [+]
