The Israeli war of aggressive annihilation against Gaza has entered its 215th day, amid the Zionist occupation forces continuing to commit mass massacres of innocent women, children and the elderly in the Gaza Strip, by launching dozens of air strikes and barbaric artillery shelling on civilians.
7 Massacres & 55 Martyrs
The occupation continues its aggression against Gaza, as the Ministry of Health in the Strip announced that the occupation committed 7 massacres. It claimed 55 martyrs and 200 injured within 24 hours.
Thus, the number of victims of the aggression on the Gaza Strip rose to 34,844 martyrs and 78,404 injured since last October 7.
Mass Graves
Today, Wednesday, the government media office in Gaza revealed a third mass grave inside the Shifa Medical Complex, from which 49 martyrs have been recovered so far, indicating that medical teams are still continuing to recover more bodies.
The office announced that the number of mass graves found inside hospitals had increased to 7 graves. One in Kamal Adwan Hospital, 3 graves in the Shifa Medical Complex, and 3 graves in the Nasser Medical Complex, adding that 520 martyrs have been recovered from these graves so far.
It held the American administration, the international community, and the “Israeli” occupation fully responsible for these mass graves and this blatant aggression against humanity. The occupation still has the green light to continue these crimes against humanity with full American support.
The office urged all free-world countries to put pressure on the occupation to end the genocidal war and the aggressions on the health sector and hospitals, as well as to launch an independent international investigation into the occupation's crimes against humanity against medical personnel, the wounded, the sick, the displaced, and civilians in general.
Fierce Clashes in Rafah
The Palestinian resistance continues to confront the Zionist forces penetrating into several areas of Gaza, as it announced, today, Wednesday that it is waging fierce clashes with the occupation forces east of the city of Rafah.
Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), said that it was engaged in fierce clashes with enemy forces penetrating east of the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.
Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad Movement, indicated that its fighters were engaged in fierce clashes with machine guns and assault rifles with enemy soldiers and vehicles penetrating east of the city of Rafah.
The Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, the military wing of the Fatah movement, announced this morning that it bombed the Zionist forces present on the Netzarim axis with a concentrated missile salvo in response to the crimes of the Zionist enemy against the Palestinian people.
Rafah Crossing Gate
The follow-up committee for the Palestinian National and Islamic Forces said on Wednesday that it followed what was reported in the media about a plan for an American security company to take over the management and monitoring of the Rafah land crossing.
The committee confirmed, in a statement, that it will not accept from any party the imposition of any form of guardianship on the Rafah crossing or any other, and we consider this a form of occupation, and any plan of this kind and its secretions will be dealt with as we deal with the occupation.
The powers called on the Arab League and all Arab and Islamic countries, especially Egypt, with its weight at the international and regional levels, to reject any plans and attempts that affect Palestinian-Egyptian sovereignty at the Rafah crossing.
It called on all parties to reject any form of cooperation with such plans, stressing that managing the internal situation is a purely Palestinian matter that is agreed upon nationally through established and agreed-upon mechanisms.
America Suspends Bomb Shipment to Israel
Reuters quoted a senior American official, yesterday, Tuesday, as saying that the administration of President Joe Biden suspended sending a shipment of weapons to “Israel” last week in objection to clear moves by the “Israelis” to invade the city of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip.
The official said: We have begun carefully reviewing the proposed transfers of certain weapons to “Israel” that may be used in Rafah beginning in April.
The official continued: As a result of this review, we stopped a weapons shipment last week, which consisted of 1,800 bombs weighing 2,000 pounds each, and 1,700 bombs weighing 500 pounds each.
He added: We are particularly focused on the end use of the 2,000-pound bombs and the impact they could have in crowded urban areas, as we have seen in other parts of Gaza, and we have not made a final decision on how to proceed with this shipment.
Other sources indicated that the weapons shipments, whose deliveries were delayed by at least two weeks, include joint direct attack munitions manufactured by Boeing, which converts unguided bombs into precision-guided bombs, in addition to small diameter bombs.
