Report: The Israeli occupation even executes the animals of Gaza

One story that the media have not reported is what Zionist forces did to animals. They destroyed a number of zoos in the Gaza Strip, which are the second recreational outlet for its bereaved families and children after the first natural outlet, the beach. The Shadha (Fragrant) Garden Zoo, on the east side of Zaytun neighborhood, which is itself on the east side of Gaza City, is the largest and most prominent zoo in Gaza, both in terms of space and the number of rare animals in its collection. It was clearly made a target by the Israeli invaders, who destroyed it completely and killed more than 95% of its animals, for it was one-of-a-kind in the Gaza Strip. the director of the Garden, Imad Qassem, went on to ask: “Where are the humane societies? And where are the international agencies? (They need) to come and see how these animals have been slaughtered in cold blood, as if for recreation.
