A Swiss parliamentary delegation has expressed shock at the sight of the vast destruction inflicted by the Israeli occupation forces on the Gaza Strip during three weeks of merciless attacks.

Anwar Al-Gharbi, the spokesman of the European campaign to lift the siege on Gaza that organized the visit in cooperation with a Swiss society, said that the delegates who arrived in Gaza via the Rafah crossing on Saturday toured the Strip and visited the Shifa hospital and the destroyed premises of the Palestinian legislative council over two days.

He said that the destruction was beyond the imagination of those delegates, adding that all vowed to convey what they have seen to the world and pledged to expose the IOF "war crimes".

Gharbi pointed out that the delegates would pressure for bringing those responsible for that destruction to an international tribunal, and added that the lawmakers have expressed rejection of Israeli detention of elected PLC members atop of whom came the speaker Dr. Aziz Dwaik.
