Gaza: Beneath the Bombs

Sharyn Lock,Sarah Irving

The 2008 Israeli offensive in Gaza was described by Amnesty international as ‘22 days of death and destruction’. This eyewitness account brings home the horror of life in Gaza beneath the bombs.

Travelling to the Gaza strip with the Free Gaza Movement, Sharyn Lock believed the greatest danger she faced was the Israeli sea blockade in a fishing boat, but on the 27th December the bombs started falling and did not stop until almost 1500 were dead. With others from the International Solidarity Movement, Sharyn volunteered with Palestinian ambulances, assisting them as they faced overwhelming civilian casualties. Her candid and dramatic writing from Gaza gave the world an insight into the conflict that the mainstream media - unable to enter Gaza - couldn’t provide.
