Targeting Gaza aid seekers

Palestinians in the Gaza Strip see NO ease in their suffering as the Israeli bombardment and siege continue even during the holy month of Ramadan. Here’s the moment when a new airstrike targeted the southern city of Rafah. The regime struck the central city of Deir al-Balah twice, killing nine Palestinians and injuring a number of others. Eleven others lost their lives after Israeli troopers once again opened fire on aid-seekers in Gaza City. According to the Gaza media office, over 400 Palestinians have been killed while in line for life-saving aid since late February. The death toll from Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza since October 7 stands at over 31,000, most of them women and children.

Palestinian resistance

The leader of Iran’s Islamic Revolution says the resistance in Palestine will eventually bring Israel to its knees. Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei made the remark during a meeting with the distinguished Iranian Qur’an reciters and activists. He said the resistance is still standing strong after months of heavy fighting. Ayatollah Khamenei also called for an end to any assistance to Israel by some Muslim countries. He said those governments helping Israel are committing crimes and will be punished for treason.
