Eleven Egyptian human rights organizations condemned this week the Israeli attacks against the civil population of Gaza and against Egyptian military personnel in the last days, and demanded that the U.N.

One of the signatory groups is the Egyptian Association for Community Participation Enhancement, focal point of Social Watch.
