Ireland condemns the Israeli massacre in Deir Al-Balah in Gaza Strip

Irish Prime Minister Simon Harris has condemned the Israeli airstrike on a school in Deir Al-Balah in central Gaza Strip, which claimed the lives of over 30 Palestinians, describing it as as “inhumane and despicable”.

In a statement, Harris condemned the attack conducted by the Israeli occupation forces as “a further demonstration of brutal, unconscionable violence”.

“Targeting an area populated with displaced families is inhumane and despicable,” he said.

“Israel continues to use disproportionate force and is waging a war that is having an unacceptable level of civilian death and injury, especially to children,” he added, according to WAFA News Agency.

“The bloodshed and suffering need to end,” he stressed while reiterating his call for an immediate ceasefire.

The targeted school was sheltering over 4,000 displaced Palestinians, according to civil defence officials in the Strip. A field hospital was also operating inside the school complex.

It is to be noted that Dublin officially recognized the State of Palestine at the end of last May, in coordination with Madrid and Oslo.

Moreover, the Arab Parliament condemned the the Israeli heinous massacre and denounced the shameful international silence over the crimes of the Israeli occupation entity and the failure to deter and hold the occupation accountable for its crimes against Palestinian civilians, including children, women and the elderly. It described this attack as a cowardly terrorist act, a shameful crime and a flagrant violation of international law and international humanitarian law.

The Arab Parliament also called on the international community, especially the Security Council, to assume its responsibilities and pressure the Israeli occupation entity to stop the war of genocide and ethnic cleansing against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip, provide international protection for Palestinian civilians, stop the blind American bias towards the occupation entity and hold its leaders accountable for their ongoing crimes.
