The Gaza civil defense has issued a plea to residents of the enclave to refrain from firing celebratory gunfire in anticipation of a ceasefire agreement between Hamas and Israel. The call comes as a precautionary measure to prevent any injuries that may occur due to stray bullets.
In a statement released by the civil defense, they emphasized the importance of considering the safety of displaced individuals living in tents and shelters. The plea highlights the potential risks associated with celebratory gunfire, which could lead to tragic consequences such as injuries or fatalities.
“We do not want to be saddened by more martyrs and wounded,” the civil defense stated, urging the community to exercise caution and avoid engaging in such activities that could endanger lives.
The ceasefire deal between Hamas and Israel has raised hopes for a period of calm and stability in the region, following recent escalations in violence. As both parties work towards a peaceful resolution, the civil defense's appeal serves as a reminder of the importance of prioritizing the safety and well-being of all individuals in the community.
Residents are encouraged to show restraint and act responsibly during this critical time, in order to prevent any unnecessary harm or casualties. By heeding the advice of the civil defense and refraining from celebratory gunfire, individuals can contribute to maintaining a peaceful and secure environment for everyone in Gaza.
