The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas has condemned Washington’s complicity in Israel’s horrific massacre of innocent people at Nuseirat refugee camp in central Gaza on Wednesday.
In the town of Nuseirat in central Gaza, Israel killed at least 210 people and left hundreds of others injured, during which it retrieved four Israeli prisoners.
Immediately after the raid, the regime’s military issued a statement, describing the massacre as a “complex daytime operation,” without even mentioning the scores of Palestinians killed.
Citing a Joe Biden administration official, the US news website Axios reported that a team of American hostage recovery officials stationed in the occupied territories assisted the Israeli military.
In a statement on its official Telegram channel, Hamas said, “What the Nazi occupation army announced about rescuing a number of its captives in Gaza…will not change its strategic failure in the Gaza Strip.”
It said that “the resistance still holds the majority of captives and is capable of increasing its capture tally… civilian lives.”
The total number of Israeli captives still held by Hamas is now 116, of which at least 41 are dead.
Hamas said US media reports about Washington’s complicity in Tel Aviv’s massacre of the Palestinians in Nuseirat once again prove that the Biden administration is “involved in the war crimes being perpetrated” in the besieged populated strip.
According to the statement, those reports are “exposing the falsehood of its [US’s] declared positions on the humanitarian situation and its concern for
The resistant group reiterated its call to the international community and the United Nations “to take a genuine stance against these ongoing crimes, which disgrace humanity and occur with sound and image before the eyes of the entire world.”
The regime’s savage military offensive has claimed the lives of more than 36,800 people since early October.
Ansarullah condemns massacre
Yemen’s Ansarullah resistance movement also condemned “the US support for these atrocities” in Gaza.
The movement said in a statement that the military carried out the massacre in Nuseirat shortly after Israel was placed on the United Nations’ “shame list” of child killers.
“This massacre confirms that the occupying regime is merely a reckless criminal gang that does not respect human rights or international law.”
On Friday, the UN added the Israeli military to the world body’s annual “list of shame” that features the offenders committing deadly violations against children.
It took “a genocide that killed 15,000 children and maimed and scarred thousands more” for the UN to “finally and rightly” add the regime to the list, observers say.
OIC calls for investigation
The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) also released a statement on Saturday to condemn the horrific massacre at Nuseirat.
The organization said that the ongoing Israeli aggression on Gaza represents “continued state terrorism and genocide, flagrantly violating international humanitarian law and relevant United Nations resolutions.”
It further called for an international investigation into the latest massacre in an effort to punish the perpetrators under international criminal law.
OIC reiterated its call to the international community, especially the UN Security Council, to urgently intervene to halt the Israeli war crimes in Gaza.
