Huge numbers resulting from the war of ethnic cleansing in Gaza
The genocidal war against 2.4 million Palestinians in the Gaza Strip continues for the 260th day, during which the Israeli occupation committed more than 3,300 massacres, claiming the lives of more than 133,000 martyrs, missing persons and wounded. In addition to turning the Strip into a spot uninhabitable for human life after most of the infrastructure was destroyed, an embodiment of the ugliest forms of racism and ethnic cleansing.
Despite most of the countries and peoples of the world protesting against the continuation of the Israeli aggression, and the UN Security Council adopting 4 resolutions, and the General Assembly 2 resolutions, to demand an end to the aggression and the entry of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip. In addition to the International Court of Justice issuing binding orders to stop the massacres committed, however, the occupying entity, as usual, always confirms publicly that it will not comply with United Nations resolutions, international law, and international humanitarian law.

The Palestinians assert that the absence of international accountability for the occupying entity, and its continued impunity, as a result of the protection provided to it by the United States, has encouraged it to persist in committing more violations and crimes. In addition to perpetuating famine in the Gaza Strip by continuing to close the crossings, to exacerbate the catastrophic humanitarian conditions, and displacing the people with the aim of implementing its colonial settlement plans.
260 days of Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip, during which the international community was unable to stop it and put an end to the occupation’s crimes, despite the issuance of several UN resolutions in this regard, but they remained a dead letter. Because of the occupation’s refusal to implement it at the instigation and support of Washington, the entity’s partner in all the crimes it commits against the Palestinians.
