“For more than seven decades, the world has witnessed the Israeli occupation and its fascist government’s awful attacks against the Palestinian people, children, women, and elderly people.

“The world has seen how the Israeli occupation continues to colonize Palestinian lands, Judaize Palestinian territories, establish settlements, desecrate Muslim and Christian places, kill Palestinians in cold blood, insult Palestinian women, and attack Palestinian detainees in Israeli jails. All of these crimes happened amid international silence, and therefore the occupation escalated its terrorism and aggression until the Israeli occupation crimes became too aggravated.”Hamas Online, Telegram, October 9, 2023.
