Gaza school carnage proves Israel ‘stain on humanity’: Iran parliament speaker
Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf says Israel’s recent massacre at a Gaza school sheltering displaced Palestinians shows once again that the regime is “a stain of shame on humanity.”
Qalibaf made the remarks on Sunday, a day after more than 100 people were killed in the Israeli bombing of the al-Tabi’in school in Gaza City’s al-Daraj neighborhood. The attack came at a time when people were performing dawn prayers and triggered a fire that ripped through the building.
“The crimes of the anti-human and criminal Zionist regime have no limits,” he said during an open parliamentary session.
By the school carnage, he added, “the dishonorable regime proved once again that the Zionists are a stain of shame on humanity and that they do not understand a language other than force.”
Qalibaf also said that the Islamic Republic strongly condemns Israel’s latest atrocities which are “simultaneously crimes against humanity, genocide and war crimes”.
He further urged Muslim governments to stop the occupying regime’s killing machine by providing practical support for the Palestinian resistance movements.
Meanwhile, the top parliamentarian referred to Israel’s assassination of Ismail Haniyeh, head of the political bureau of the Palestinian Hamas resistance group, in the Iranian capital Tehran on July 31.
“We regard avenging the blood of Martyr Ismail Haniyeh as our religious and national duty,” he said, warning that “the Zionist regime must await a severe punishment from the Iranian nation.”
Iran VP: Int’l bodies ‘accomplices’ to Israeli crimes
On Saturday, Iran’s first vice president Mohammad Reza Aref said in an X post that international organizations and the self-proclaimed advocates of human rights that are silent on Israeli atrocities in the Gaza Strip are actually “accomplices” to those crimes.
Israel unleashed a genocidal war on Gaza on October 7, 2023, after Hamas carried out its historic operation against the usurping entity in retaliation for the regime’s intensified atrocities against the Palestinian people.
So far, the Tel Aviv regime has killed at least 39,790 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and injured 91,702 others.
