US-Israel Gaza genocide

Israel keeps dropping bombs and firing artillery shells on Gaza, further indicating the regime’s specific goal to commit genocide in the besieged territory. There’s a video showing critically injured Palestinians at a hospital, following fresh airstrikes on the Nuseirat camp in central Gaza. There were new airstrikes on the Bureij refugee camp, also in central Gaza. Over three dozen Palestinians lost their lives in the latest Israeli bombardment of the two camps. The Israeli military also once again opened fire at Gazan aid-seekers, killing at least 30 of them. It took place when the regime’s forces targeted a gathering of popular committees formed to secure the transfer of aid from the Kuwait Roundabout to Gaza City. The death toll from the US-Israeli genocide in Gaza since October the 7 has topped 31,900. Over 74,000 have also been injured. 

Missile hits Eilat

The Israeli military has confirmed that a missile fired from Yemen hit the vicinity of Eilat port in the occupied Palestinian territories. Yahya Saree, the spokesman for Yemen’s armed forces said, in a statement, that a cruise missile was launched early on Tuesday from the country’s territorial waters in the Red Sea toward the occupied territories. The regime’s Iron Dome and Arrow missile defense systems failed to intercept the missile. There is still no report of casualties or damage as the military claims the missile fell in an unpopulated area. Eilat port has already been struggling financially amid Yemen’s operations against Israeli or Israeli-bound ships in the Red Sea. The Yemeni armed forces have pledged that they would keep targeting those vessels unless the regime stops its bloodshed of Palestinians and ends its siege on Gaza.

Persian New Year

The leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution has congratulated the Iranian nation on the Persian New Year. In a televised address to the nation, Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei named the New Year as “Surge in production through people’s participation.” Elaborating on this year’s slogan, Ayatollah Khamenei said, the growth in production will solve many of Iran’s economic problems, including inflation and unemployment. That’s why, the leader added, the issue of domestic production has been highlighted in New Year’s slogans over the past years. Ayatollah Khamenei reviewed the previous Iranian calendar as well. The leader said the country saw an outstanding improvement in the scientific and technological domain over the past twelve months. He also pointed to some key events that Iranians witnessed at home as well as those that occurred abroad. Ayatollah Khamenei said, the most tragic of all those events was the one that took place in Gaza, a reference to the ongoing Israeli genocidal war on the besieged territory.
