US-Israeli onslaught on Gaza

We start this bulletin with day 82 of Israel’s genocidal campaign in the Gaza Strip. The death toll is approaching 21-thousand and more residential buildings are reduced to rubble. The city of Khan Yunis in the south of the Gaza Strip has once again come under deadly air raids and artillery strikes. The Israeli army has also hit the Nuseirat, Bureij and Maghazi refugee camps. Health officials in Gaza say Israel has killed more than 240 Palestinians in the past 24 hours and wounded nearly 400 others. The World Health Organization has once again raised the alarm about the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza. The WHO has denounced the Israeli bloodbath and carnage in the Palestinian territory. 

Condemning Israeli terrorism

Iran’s permanent ambassador to the United Nations has condemned Israel in the strongest terms for the assassination of an Iranian military advisor in Syria. Iravani made the comments in a letter sent to the UN secretary-general and the president of the Security Council following Monday’s assassination of Brigadier General Seyyed Razi Mousavi in an Israeli missile strike in Damascus. He said Israel bears responsibility for the tragic loss of innocent lives of Iranian military advisors. Iravani also called on the Security Council to condemn such terrorist acts Israel undertakes. 

Israeli war crimes

The Hamas resistance movement has strongly condemned abduction of the bodies of 80 Palestinians killed by Israeli forces in Gaza as a war crime. The movement issued the statement after the regime returned the bodies to Gaza in a state of decomposition, which made their identification difficult. Hamas said this heinous crime once again proved the Israeli regime’s barbarism and moral decline. The movement said examination of the bodies revealed that in many cases the regime had stolen the organs of the slain Palestinians. Gaza’s government media office, for its part, confirmed that the bodies delivered to Gaza were mutilated and their organs removed. It also called for an independent international investigation into the abduction of the bodies of the Palestinians and removal of their organs by Israel.
