US-Israeli Gaza genocide 

Israeli forces continue to wreak havoc on Gaza City, as the regime declares the beginning of its ground aggression to capture the city despite widespread international outcry. On Tuesday, the regime’s forces deepened the ground push into Gaza City alongside intensive air and artillery strikes. Gaza officials say nearly 110 civilians were killed in Tuesday attacks, and about 20 homes and buildings were destroyed. EU Foreign Policy chief Kaja Kallas warned that Israel’s ground offensive will make an already desperate situation even worse, and will mean more death, destruction, and displacement. Elsewhere in Gaza, an Israeli airstrike on a house in the Nuseirat refugee camp killed a Palestinian man, his wife, and his daughter. Another strike hit a vehicle carrying displaced persons west of Gaza City, killing five civilians, including children. Three more Palestinians, including a child, died of malnutrition, raising the total toll to 428, including 146 children. The death toll from the Israeli genocide now exceeds 64,960, with more than 165,300 others injured. 

Israeli onslaught on Gaza 

The United Nations Secretary General has expressed serious alarm about the situation in the Gaza Strip amid the Israeli genocide in the besieged territory. Speaking at a press briefing ahead of the annual meeting of the UN General Assembly, Antonio Guterres said what is happening in Gaza is horrendous. He called the war in the Palestinian territory "morally, politically and legally intolerable." Guterres noted that Israel is determined to "go up to the end" in its military aggression against Gaza, and is not open to serious ceasefire talks. Let’s hear more.

Slamming US intervationism 

Iran's foreign ministry has strongly condemned Washington’s interventionist policies toward Tehran. The ministry’s comments came after the US State Department issued a statement to mark the anniversary of the 2022 riots in Iran. Iran’s Foreign Ministry said the statement is a clear example of the United States’ hostile and criminal interference in the country’s internal affairs. It noted that as the biggest supporter of the genocidal Israeli regime, and as a government based on racism and racial discrimination, the US is not qualified to talk about the lofty concepts of human rights. The ministry cited examples of US hostilities toward Iranians, including the 1953 coup against the country’s elected prime minister, and the 1988 downing of an Iranian passenger plane that killed nearly 300 civilians. It also cited Washington’s complicity in Israel’s recent aggression against Iran and its support for the ongoing Israeli genocide in Gaza. The ministry stressed that the Iranian people will never forget and forgive the US government's savage crimes and continued interference in Iran's affairs, and judge American politicians' human rights claims on that basis.
