The Palestine Museum of Contemporary Art in the Iranian capital city of Tehran is hosting a cartoon exhibition on the atrocities and war crimes being committed by Israel in the besieged Gaza Strip and elsewhere across the occupied Palestinian territories.

The exhibit, titled "Gaza 290 Days", began on Monday and is featuring 45 selected works by Latin American cartoonists from countries such as Venezuela, Mexico, Peru, Colombia, the Dominican Republic, Cuba and Brazil.

The relentless Israeli military assaults and atrocities against Palestinians have inspired Latin American artists, particularly cartoonists, to create effective works of art.

The Gaza 290 Days exhibition will run until August 14.

Israel has killed over 39,000 Palestinians, most of them women, children, and adolescents, in Gaza since October.

The regime launched the campaign of death, destruction and genocide after it was caught off-guard by Operation Al-Aqsa Storm into the occupied territories.

Israel has been enforcing a near-total siege on the coastal territory, which has reduced into a trickle the flow of foodstuffs, medicine, electricity, and water into the Palestinian territory.
