Israel denies Bedouin citizens basic services in life but claims them as civilians when they die.
Over 400 Palestinians have been killed since Israel began its current military operation in Gaza. According to the United Nations, approximately three-quarters of Gaza’s dead are civilians; many are children.
In Israel, two civilians have been killed. One was a Bedouin, the 32-year-old Oudi Lafi al-Waj, who lived in an unrecognized village in the Negev (Naqab) desert, near Dimona. Several Bedouin children have also been injured by rocket fire since Israel began “Operation Protective Edge.”
Bedouin villages do not have air raid sirens, nor are they covered by Iron Dome. They also lack bomb shelters.
