Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas, affirmed on Thursday that the statements made by the so-called Minister of War in the Zionist enemy government, Yoav Katz, in which he asserted that preventing the entry of humanitarian aid into the Gaza Strip is “a pressure tool approved by his fascist government, and constitutes a documented public admission of committing a war crime by using starvation as a weapon against innocent civilians.”
The movement added in a statement that this statement is in addition to similar positions issued by Zionist officials, led by extremist Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, who explicitly called for preventing the entry of “even a single gram” of aid into Gaza, “a scandalous position that reveals the occupation’s clear intention to continue its policy of genocide and ethnic cleansing against more than two million Palestinians trapped in the Gaza Strip for the seventh consecutive week.”
Hamas expressed its deep regret over the silence of the international community, the United Nations, and the Security Council regarding these criminal statements, warning that such silence constitutes political cover for war crimes committed openly and directly.
The movement renewed its call for immediate action to end the starvation and blockade imposed on the Gaza Strip.
Hamas demanded that the International Criminal Court open an urgent investigation and hold Katz, Ben-Gvir, and all other occupation leaders accountable for their documented crimes against humanity.
