Israel – various comments – militarized barbarism – UPDATED
As this is still developing, and the US is celebrating memorial day, I would like to summarize:
Here’s what happening in Rafah. Israel bombed Rafah in southern Gaza more than 60 times in 48 hours, ignoring orders from the International Court of Justice to stop its military operations there. Israel bombed displaced Palestinians in tents, the number of dead and injured is not known yet. These tents caught fire and people and children were horribly burnt! Some say more than 30, and others more than 100 and the tolls are still increasing .. These are Palestinians, including children. The scenes coming out of Rafah are horrific, and is a massacre. It is a slaughter of people and children.
๐น๐น๐น๐น
Israel is burning Palestinians alive.
The new comments are far below now.ย At the moment – The IOF’s bombing of Gaza at the moment is unceasing and barbaric, carrying out several massacres and leading to entire families martyred in a pathetic attempt to restore its broken “prestige” due to historic resistance advances.ย I’ll continue this in its right place, below.ย Before that, this info .. Gaza: After ICJ order to halt attacks on Rafah, Israel launches over 60 air raids on the city in 48 hours.
These are only the ones that I pick up today that still shake me in my shoes and shock me. This is by no means the worst atrocities, it is just an average collection that happens day by day, hour by hour.
YAY! Weโre committing crimes against humanity!! More of THIS guy!!! https://t.co/LGjSpbwXhG

Israeli occupation soldiers prevent Palestinian residents and paramedics from reaching the wounded Palestinian they shot at the Beit Einun junction, northeast of Hebron, with the apparent intention of leaving him to bleed to death.

I never saw before that the Chinese Press in English feature the Gaza and Palestinian small videos. That has changed. Combined with Pepe’s essay posted earlier today and Nora Hoppe’s essay posted earlier today, and China and Brazil wanting to lead at least one peace process, China and I’ve only checked CGTN, have started posting the horrors of Gaza. Here are a few:

Breaking | Latest toll confirms more than 27 Palestinians were murdered by Israeli airstrikes targeting displacement camps at a UNRWA site in Tal Al-Sultan in Rafah City.
Horrifying images are unfolding as the bodies of tens of families are severely burned and beyond recognition, following multiple Israeli missiles being dropped on their barracks.
Breaking | Hours after the Israeli Knesset approved the preliminary reading designating UNRWA as a “terrorist organization,” Israel slaughter more than 30 displaced Palestinians sheltering at a UNRWA center in Rafah.
(Amarynth comment – The Zionist Israelis think they have the last word on anything.ย It is inculcated and they believe it. )

The following was added after the Israelis bombed the tents of displaced people who were forced into the area because it was supposedly safe.

Emergency Committee in the Rafah Governorate:
โ
Dozens of martyrs and wounded in a massacre committed by the occupation targeting displaced people’s tents in northwest Rafah despite claiming they were safe.
This evening, Sunday, the “israeli” occupation committed a massacre (https://t.me/PalestineResist/41540) by bombing the tents of displaced persons in northwest Rafah (Tal al-Sultan), resulting in dozens of martyrs and wounded, and causing fires in the tents.
The Emergency Committee confirms that the “israeli” bombing targeted the tents of displaced persons in areas the occupation claimed were safe and had urged residents to move to.
The massacre committed negates all the occupation’s claims of safe areas in Rafah.
Committing the massacre against displaced civilians reflects the “israeli” insistence on continuing the killing and destruction in Rafah, ignoring all international demands and decisions to stop the military operation and avoid harming civilians.
The failure of the international community, led by the United States, to take any deterrent measures against the occupation and to ignore implementing the decisions of the International Court of Justice, serves as a green light for the occupation to continue its killing and destruction in Rafah, which is the last refuge for hundreds of thousands of displaced persons.
We renew our call to the international community and active UN institutions to work seriously and effectively to force the occupation to comply with the decisions of the International Court of Justice and not to suffice with statements and recording positions. Otherwise, every delay will result in more victims.

The area targeted by the occupation (https://t.me/PalestineResist/41540) [in Rafah] is a humanitarian zone to which Palestinians were previously forced to migrate.

Palestinian Ministry of Health in Gaza:
A large number of martyrs and wounded as a result of the brutal bombing (https://t.me/PalestineResist/41540) by occupation aircraft on a camp for displaced people northwest of the city of Rafah, and a search is underway for missing persons at the location.
Renewed and heavy IOF bombing by warplanes and artillery shelling targets Tal Al-Sultan, west of Rafah in the southern #Gaza Strip, following the massacre (https://t.me/PalestineResist/41541?single) that the IOF carried out in the area on the tents of the displaced.
The occupation army bombed more than 10 UNRWA displacement centers during the past hours.
There are more than 30 martyrs and dozens of injuries in occupation bombings northwest (https://t.me/PalestineResist/41549) of Rafah.
The occupation bombed the areas it identified as safe in Rafah.
The occupation committed a horrific massacre by deliberately bombing the displacement center shelters northwest of Rafah.
The occupation army deliberately causes the largest possible number of martyrs among civilians and displaced people.
This massacre is a message to the international community that the Holocaust against the Palestinians continues and that the massacres against the displaced continue.

Mujahideen Movement:
โ
The new zionist massacres (https://t.me/PalestineResist/41541?single) against displaced civilians in Rafah are a new disregard for the decisions of the International Court of Justice and the international community and system, practiced by the criminal entity’s gang state.
We hold the American administration and its president, Biden, responsible for the continuation of the enemy’s heinous crimes against the unarmed displaced who have been scorched by the fire of aggression and displacement from their homes. The American enemy is a genuine partner in the zionists’ crimes against our people and the usurpation of our people’s rights.
With these continuous crimes, the enemy is trying to escape from its failure in the face of the steadfastness and continuous creativity of the resistance, exploiting international silence and incompetence.
We affirm that it will not affect the determination of our people and that its cowardly crimes will only make us more determined to expel it from our land and crush its terrorist army.
We condemn the continued international and Arab silence and incompetence in the face of the genocide crimes against our people and call on the peoples of the world and its free individuals to escalate their protests and exert more pressure on the zionists and their supporters until the brutal zionist aggression against our people stops.

Statement issued by the Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine regarding the massacre of displaced persons’ tents in Rafah.
The horrific and sinful massacre (https://t.me/PalestineResist/41541?single)committed by the zionist enemy by targeting the tents of displaced persons in the northwest Rafah area is a new war crime added to the series of genocidal war crimes the enemy is waging against our people in the Gaza Strip, especially since the enemy had declared this area a safe zone for the displaced.
The targeting of civilians in the displaced persons’ camps in Rafah confirms the depth of the military failure the enemy has suffered in the field, prompting it to compensate by targeting civilians and furthering the bloodshed of Palestinians to satisfy the bloodthirsty in “Tel Aviv.”
The continuation of the enemy’s crimes in the Gaza Strip is a result of the cover provided by the US administration, the positions of some European governments, and the weak stances of Arab regimes, which encourage the enemy to disregard all international decisions and humanitarian and ethical norms, exposing the inability of international institutions to enforce their resolutions on the enemy.
It is a jihad of victory or martyrdom.

Civil Defense Directorate in Gaza:
โ
We responded to the distress calls from citizens in the northern shelters area west of Rafah Governorate, which is one of the humanitarian zones to which the “israeli” occupation forcibly displaced citizens, blatantly disregarding the decisions of the International Criminal Court.
Our teams have retrieved approximately 50 between martyrs and injured individuals, aside from those transported by the Health, Red Crescent, and medical services teams. We extinguished a fire with the participation of all civil defense vehicles in Rafah Governorate.
The targeting (https://t.me/PalestineResist/41541?single) of this area by the occupation adds to the genocidal crimes that the “israeli” occupation is carrying out against the civilian population in Gaza, in clear violation of all international norms.
We hold the “israeli” occupation fully responsible for the massacre, as well as the United States of America, which supports the occupation with the weapons used to kill the Palestinian people and were used in the Rafah massacre today, contributing to the increase in human losses and the number of martyrs in the Strip.
The attacks and massacres in Rafah Governorate continue despite the rising number of martyrs and the significant shortage of resources and capabilities within the humanitarian work system in Rafah Governorate, and the destruction of civilian objects in violation of all international laws.
We hold the United Nations agencies fully responsible for the cessation of humanitarian work due to the lack of fuel and necessary humanitarian work supplies for civil defense, even though they are active in wars and contribute to providing logistical support to local humanitarian intervention agencies. We have formally contacted them to supply us with fuel, but they align with the occupation by not providing us with the necessary humanitarian supplies and fuel.
In conclusion, we emphasize the following:
Firstly: We demand the UN Secretary-General, the President of the International Committee of the Red Cross, the Red Crescent, and the President of the International Committee for Civil Protection and Civil Defense to urgently intervene to compel the United Nations to supply us with our humanitarian needs to complete the emergency interventions.
Secondly: We demand the President of the International Criminal Court to take swift steps to stop the genocidal massacres against civilian objects in Gaza and stop the genocide war.
Thirdly: We call on Arab countries to break the unjust siege on the humanitarian work system and urgently supply us with our logistical needs.
Fourthly: We urge the free peoples of the world, especially students in American and Western universities, to move immediately to support and assist the humanitarian work system as one of the essential pillars in urgent response efforts.

AND SO IT CONTINUES, ONE REPORT AFTER THE OTHER, UNTIL YOU GET TO:
The IOF admits that it intentionally targeted the tents of the displaced in Rafah, resulting in a massacre (https://t.me/PalestineResist/41543?single) in which over 40 martyrs ascended, following baseless attempts by zionist media to blame Palestinian resistance for the massacre.

Back over on the Russian news, they say “Hamas fires rocket barrage at Tel Aviv. The militants have fired at least eight missiles at the Israeli city, which reportedly did minor damage .

The IOF’s bombing of Gaza at the moment is unceasing and barbaric, carrying out several massacres and leading to entire families martyred in a pathetic attempt to restore its broken “prestige” due to historic resistance advances.
The entityโs thirst for blood, punishment, and revenge on the Palestinian people becomes more apparent by the day. The IOF has increased the frequency of its indiscriminate targeting of homes in Gaza with no present resistance activity, leveling homes on residents’ heads.
We know, as our readers know, that the people are the resistance and vice versa: it is the relationship between the sword and shield, the heart and arm. Every Palestinian struggles under the occupation. As this historic battle rages on, we know that the tactics of the occupation will evolve. They will continue to target homes regardless of the presence of resistance activity in an attempt to demoralize the Palestinian people, draw blood, and accelerate their genocide.
As this happens, it is our obligation to our principles that dictates we must not fall into the trap of distinguishing between armed resistance fighters and non-combatants, as every Palestinian has a role in the current state of affairs. Every martyr must be mourned, and every zionist strike must be seen for the crime that it is. We will not allow the occupier or Western media to dehumanize us by creating distinctions between a colonized people whose remained existence on their lands is “militant.”
Every Palestinian is a civilian even if they hold arms. A settler is an aggressor, a soldier, and an occupier even if they are lounging on our occupied beaches. As the IOF calls up thousands of reserves, it is clear that all settlers are soldiers. There exists a colonizer and the colonized, an oppressed and the oppressor. The people cannot be dissociated from resistance, because we are in a constant state of resistance.
Certainly, an explosive response is coming.
This struggle has been imposed on us.
To resist is to survive, and to resist is a right.
