KUWAIT CITY, Nov 4: Amid growing fears that the Zionist aggression against Gaza, which has been ongoing for more than three weeks, will prevent and deprive a number of Palestinian teachers, who were recently contracted by the Ministry of Education, from leaving the Gaza Strip and arriving in Kuwait in light of the continued aggression and complications related to the Rafa’a crossing, informed sources said two teachers have already been killed by the Israeli bombing of Gaza during the current aggression.

Reliable sources in the Ministry said about 530 Palestinian teachers had been selected to work in Kuwait and the number of those with whom the Palestinian Embassy in Kuwait was able to communicate does not exceed 20, while communication is almost cut off with the rest of them.

The sources stressed that no one knows for sure yet the fate of the rest, and whether they are alive, killed by the bombing, or missing or displaced, pointing out that the embassy has, in vain, tried several times to communicate with them.
