Petition: IAF booms hurting Gazans

The petition included the professional opinion of psychiatrists who argued that the booms are causing considerable emotional damage to the Palestinian population and children in particular.

Physicians argue that the supersonic booms heard in Gaza overnight have caused anxiety to children who live in constant fear because they cannot differentiate supersonic booms from missile explosions. Most children suffering from anxiety have nightmares and complain of dizziness and headache, the physicians added.
