Gaza Conflict From Space In 'Saddest Photo'
by Guest Thu Jul 24, 2014 9:48 pm
Explosions are spotted more than 200 miles above the Earth as the International Space Station flies over Israel and Gaza.
An astronaut has posted a picture from the International Space Station while flying over Gaza and Israel, showing the worsening crisis which has left more than 700 people dead.
German flight engineer Alexander Gerst captured the scene from 220 miles above the Earth as rockets and explosions lit up the night sky with wispy yellow light.
His photo quickly went viral on the internet as he tweeted the message: "My saddest photo yet. From #ISS we can actually see explosions and rockets flying over #Gaza & #Israel."
Tens of thousands around the world shared the image as international pressure grows to stop the bloodshed in Gaza.
The UN Human Rights Council says there is a "strong possibility" Israel is guilty of war crimes in Gaza, where some 715 Palestinians, including 165 children, have died in the fighting.
