Events happening in Gaza are total destruction of civilian population - Putin

ST. PETERSBURG. June 5 (Interfax) - The events happening in the Gaza Strip in retaliation to the terrorist attack in Israel are destruction of civilian population, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.

"Of course, we are against terrorist in all its manifestations, against attacks against civilians, in any place and in any country, but what is now happening in Gaza in retaliation to the well-known terrorist attack in Israel still doesn't very much look like a war. It's some total destruction of civilian population," Putin said at a meeting with the editors-in-chief of foreign news agencies.
