Statement condemning the #Entesaf organization regarding the continued crimes and massacres committed by the Zionist Israeli occupation against civilians while they were trying to receive aid in the Rafah and Gaza Valley areas in the Gaza Strip.

We condemn and denounce in the strongest terms the continuing series of crimes committed by the Zionist Israeli occupation against the Palestinian people. 49 starving people were killed and 305 others were injured as a result of the Israeli enemy targeting civilians attempting to obtain food aid in the Rafah and Wadi Gaza areas of the Gaza Strip.

These crimes and massacres constitute a grave violation of international humanitarian law, which criminalizes the targeting of innocent civilians in any way. The purely civilian nature of the crime scene confirms the Zionist Israeli occupation army’s deliberate violation of the principles and rules of international humanitarian law, including the principles of humanity, distinction, and proportionality. These crimes constitute war crimes against humanity and are an extension of the series of war crimes and genocide committed by the Zionist Israeli occupation in Palestine for years.

We hold the Zionist Israeli occupation forces responsible for all crimes targeting civilians, hospitals, ambulances, and other objects. We also hold the United Nations, the Security Council, and Muslim and Arab countries responsible for their shameful silence and shirking of their responsibilities, which has encouraged the Zionist Israeli occupation to continue committing further war crimes against civilians in the Palestinian territories.

We renew our appeal to the international community, particularly the International Court of Justice, to open an investigation, establish criminal accountability, and punish all those proven to be involved in these crimes. We call on human rights and humanitarian organizations, all Muslim and Arab countries, and honorable and free people around the world to assume their moral and humanitarian responsibilities in supporting the oppressed Palestinian people, condemning the horrific crimes committed by the Zionist Israeli occupation, and pressuring the United Nations, specifically the Security Council, to fulfill their legal and moral duty to protect civilians and halt this deliberate aggression.
