❗️Hamas:
"The terrorist occupation's closure of the Gaza Strip crossings for the third consecutive day, and its prevention of the entry of aid and goods, represents a Zionist insistence on violating the ceasefire agreement, and a flagrant war crime committed before the eyes and ears of the world, by targeting innocent civilians with starvation campaigns and deepening their humanitarian suffering to achieve political goals.
The international community, the United Nations, and human rights and humanitarian organizations must take immediate action to stop these systematic and unprecedented violations of international and humanitarian law, hold the occupation leaders accountable as war criminals, and impose the entry of aid, humanitarian and medical relief materials, shelter and rescue materials into the Gaza Strip.
In light of the convening of the emergency Arab Summit in Cairo (Palestine Summit), we look forward to an effective Arab role that will end the humanitarian tragedy created by the occupation in the Gaza Strip, oblige its fascist government to stop its crimes against defenseless civilians, and pressure to open the crossings and bring in what our people in the Strip need to strengthen their steadfastness on their land, and thwart the occupation’s plans to displace them."
