Onslaught on Gaza

Iran’s Foreign Ministry Spokesman has once again condemned the Israeli attacks on civilians in Gaza, blaming the international community for its inaction on the regime’s ongoing atrocities. Esmail Baghaei said that it is a disgrace for the international community and human rights organizations for being tight-lipped in the face of the Israeli crimes against women and children. He added, the regime is continuing with its crimes due to the impunity it enjoys and the support it receives from the United States. The spokesman also referred to the recent killing of scores of civilians in Beit Lahia in Gaza as well as violent attacks by extremist settlers on al-Aqsa Mosque, describing it as part of a plan to eliminate the Palestinian nation’s identity. Baghaei urged the international community and Islamic nations to take immediate and decisive actions to hold Israeli leaders accountable.
