Yochai Kopler, a potato grower who worked with Chavez, said "sniper and mortar fire opened up. We didn't have luck this time, as we did the other times. Every day they shoot at us, and we run away like rabbits."
Dit is het lot van ca. 30.000 mensen in Sderot en kibboetsen in de buurt van Gaza. Als het aan de Hamas ligt worden dat er honderdduizenden en daarna miljoenen.

Carlos Chavez, sinds twee maanden vrijwilliger op de kibboetz, deed niks anders dan het land bewerken, maar voor Israëlisch land bewerken verdien je wat Hamas betreft de doodstraf.

Carlos Chavez killed while working in kibbutz potato field

Ecuadorian volunteer Carlos Chavez, 21, was killed when a Palestinian sniper fired from the border area into Israel.
Chavez had been working in a potato field near the kibbutz border fence, Ein Hashlosha's security chief said. He was hit in the back and taken by his friends to the kibbutz infirmary.
A Magen David Adom ambulance arrived on the scene shortly after, but paramedics were unable to resuscitate him.
The shots were fired in the direction of IDF engineering corps operating in the area.
Yochai Kopler, a potato grower who worked with Chavez, said "sniper and mortar fire opened up. We didn't have luck this time, as we did the other times.
Every day they shoot at us, and we run away like rabbits."
"It's tough for us to receive news like this," said Annie Rotman, who is responsible for the kibbutz's volunteers.
She said that Chavez came to the kibbutz two months ago. "Only yesterday, we spoke with him, laughed with him."
"Everyone here is afraid," she said. "The volunteers do the work, and when there is shooting, they go into hysteria. We are finding it difficult to digest what has happened."
David Lanos, 19, also a volunteer on the kibbutz, said the sniper fire came as they were preparing to plant potato seeds. "I told him, 'Sit down, they're shooting at us.' We managed to hide behind a car. When he stood up to get into it, he was hit in the back."
Lanos then told Chavez not to go to sleep. "He answered 'I'm not able,' and then I lost him."
An IDF spokesman said Chavez's showed the need for continued military operations in Gaza.
"The shooting of the Ecuadorian youth demonstrates the necessity of the defensive measures the military is carrying out with pinpoint operations," IDF spokeswoman Major Avital Leibovich said.
