By Tarisai Mudahondo
Ambassador of the state of Palestine in Zimbabwe, Dr Tamer Almassri condemns in the strongest terms the devastating occupation war on Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, which includes bombing and destruction of civilian structures (Hospitals, schools, supermarkets, government buildings and residential flats), killing and displacement of Palestinians, and confirms that it has plunged the Palestinian citizens of the Gaza Strip into a real humanitarian catastrophe.
In a statement seen by this publication he said, “Israel is exploiting the double standards in waging a war against the Palestinian civilians, continuing to commit massacres, crimes, and all manifestations of genocide of defenceless civilians, which rises to the level of war crimes and crimes against humanity within the eyes of the international community and Western countries.
The state of Palestine is disappointed with the international community, which is still applying double standards, as many countries built their positions on the false news issued by Israel without verifying it. At the same time, these countries blind themselves the crimes of genocide committed by Israel targeting civilians mainly children, women,medical personnel, journalists as well as United Nations humanitarian workers which is a war crime”.
He added that,” To date Israeli has completely wiped out 55 Palestinian families in the Gaza Strip. At least 2750 Palestinian have been killed by Israel in Gaza, over 1000 are children representing one-third of the total death toll, with casualty count rapidly rising as Israel seals Palestinians in Gaza off from food, fuel, electricity, water, and medical supplies.”.
Palestinians demand the opening of a safe corridor to deliver aid, medical supplies and fuel to the Gaza Strip which Israel has sealed which amounts to collective punishments.
