Houstonians Protests Gaza Blockade

Some Houstonians are demanding Israel end its blockade of the Gaza Strip. Demonstrators took to the streets in the Galleria area Saturday in protest. They say Palestinians in the Strip are being forced to live without electricity, water and functioning medical facilities.

Israel closed the borders about a week ago after Hamas militants fired rockets into the area. The protesters wanted Israel investigated for crimes against humanity.
