Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Israeli Troops Shoot Dead Three Palestinians in Gaza

HeadlineMay 07, 2018

On Sunday, Israeli forces shot dead three Palestinians near the border between Gaza and Israel. Israel has now killed at least 43 Palestinians since protests began along the border in late March. More than 7,000 Palestinians have been wounded during that time. Meanwhile, Palestinians living in Israel staged a protest at the Erez crossing on Friday. Ahmad Tibi is head of the Arab Joint List parliamentary faction in the Israeli Knesset.

Ahmad Tibi: “We are here to demonstrate against the killing of civilians, demonstrators in Gaza, nonviolent Palestinians who are demonstrating against the siege, demanding and asking for return.”
