Israel genocide in Gaza

More Palestinian have lost their lives in the Gaza Strip as the Israeli regime's genocidal onslaught on the besieged territory continued for the 13th day. According to Palestinian media, about 400 Gazans, including many women and children, were killed in the regime’s attacks during the past 24 hours. The strikes targeted homes, residential neighborhoods and even air raid shelter. Gaza’s health ministry says the attacks have claimed the lives of 44 medical personnel, while injuring 70 others. In addition, 23 ambulances have been targeted in defiance of international regulations. Gaza’s interior ministry said the Israeli strikes also hit a Greek Orthodox church where displaced people had taken shelter, killing and injuring a large number of them. Israel began its deadly onslaught on Gaza on October the 7th. Nearly three-thousand-and-nine-hundred Palestinians have died as a result of the regime’s strikes and over 13,500 others been injured. The Palestinian journalists' union says 16 journalists have been killed in Israel’s attacks. The regime’s bombardment of Gaza has also exacerbated the humanitarian situation there, drawing the UN chief’s reaction.

Israel 'Nazi' nature

The head of the political bureau of the Hamas resistance movement says Israel’s crimes against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip have revealed the regime’s Nazi and fascist nature. Ismail Haniyeh was speaking in a televised speech. He warned that the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza could turn into a regional war if the regime’s brutal attacks continue. Haniyeh stressed that the way out of the current situation is an end to the Israeli occupation and freedom of the Palestinian people. The senior Hamas official said the world should condemn Israel’s crimes and hold their perpetrators accountable at international courts. Haniyeh said the US administration failed to muster international and regional support for the Israeli aggression and make Arab countries accept displacement of Palestinians in Gaza. He called on Muslim nations to hold demonstrations on Friday to demand a halt to Israel’s aggression. He also called for more efforts to deliver aid to the people in Gaza, adding that the besieged territory is facing a humanitarian catastrophe due to Israel’s Nazi-style brutality.

Pro-Palestine rallies

Pro-Palestinian protests are in full swing across the globe amid growing anti-Israel sentiments over the regime's deadly war on the blockaded Gaza Strip. Protesters in the Greek port city of Thessaloniki burned Israel’s flag to vent their anger at the regime’s crimes. People from all walks of life, including students and workers, joined the demonstration, which ended in front of the US consulate. The protesters expressed support for Palestinians in their anti-Israel fight to liberate their land. Elsewhere in Spain, protesters gathered in Barcelona to denounce Israel’s continued bombardment of Gaza. They accused the regime of committing genocide in the besieged territory. Jordanians also held a fresh protest in solidarity with the Palestinian people in Gaza.
