The Israeli occupation authority (IOA) on Tuesday morning resumed spraying harmful herbicides on farmlands near the border fence in the east of the Gaza Strip.
The Palestinian health ministry in Gaza said that Israeli aircrafts sprayed the agricultural areas in the east of Gaza City with toxic chemicals.
Last Sunday, vast tracts of land planted with wheat, barley, corn, okra, molokhia (corchorus olitorius) and other crops sustained damage after Israeli agricultural aircrafts sprayed them with toxic herbicides.
In this regard, al-Mezan Center for Human Rights accused the Israeli occupation state of exploiting the global coronavirus crisis to destroy crops along the border fence in the east of Gaza, while persisting in imposing its tight siege on the population.
Al-Mezan Center called on the international community to assume its legal and moral responsibilities and intervene to prevent Israel from using toxic herbicides that exterminate crops and endanger the lives of farmers and citizens in Gaza.
Every once in a while, the IOA deliberately sprays agricultural areas in eastern Gaza with toxic chemicals and destroy large tracts of cultivated land under different flimsy pretexts.
