The commission, whose theme was “Humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip”, started at 2:40 pm this Wednesday (Nov 8). In the records made, a Palestinian flag appears resting on the session’s table. Despite the incident, the meeting continued with the planned debate.
“The posters on the table do not detract from any state, they show the cruel, inhumane and cowardly genocide practiced by one state against another. This is a peaceful movement in defense of a people who are harassed, massacred and raped.”said federal deputy Érika Hilton (PSol-SP) to Power360.
A second part of the session, this time with Israel’s perspective on the war, was also scheduled to take place today, but was canceled after the place was emptied due to the confusion.
The president of the Commission, Zé Silva (Solidariedade-MG), committed to holding the hearing if a new request is made.
