    According to the English section of webangah News Agency, ‍quoting Mehr News Agency, Riyad‍ Mansour, Palestine’s ⁢representative to the United Nations, warned during a Security Council session early Wednesday about the ongoing Israeli aggression in Gaza.He emphasized that there is ⁤a global⁣ consensus on the urgent need to end the war in Gaza.

    Mansour sharply criticized Prime⁢ Minister Benjamin⁢ Netanyahu’s cabinet, asserting that Israel is pursuing full occupation of Gaza despite international calls for ⁤peace. The world demands an immediate halt to hostilities.

    Highlighting Israel’s denial of widespread hunger and other crimes in Gaza, Mansour said: “Israel denies what the entire world witnesses.” He described the humanitarian situation as catastrophic and⁢ accused Israel of enforcing a policy designed to⁢ starve two million Palestinians under a severe and suffocating blockade.

    Mansour also warned​ that Israel exploits concerns over its prisoners as a pretext to continue committing these crimes.

    The Palestinian envoy concluded by stating that peace in the region can only begin once ‍the war in ‌Gaza⁣ ends.

    Campaign Launched in Italy Demanding Halt to Palestinian Genocide

    More than 100 representatives from Italian universities, factories,‍ labor unions, ‌political leaders, intellectuals, ​clerics, associations, ⁣activists, and media outlets have issued a call ⁣to support teh ​people of Gaza.

    According to​ the english section of webangah ‍News Agency,citing Mehr News Agency,over 100 representatives from Italian academia,industry,labor unions,political leaderships,intellectual circles,religious communities,associations,activists and media have launched a statement in support of the people of Gaza.

    The​ statement calls for reviving ⁤popular mobilization to back the Palestinian​ people and‍ their resistance struggle. It ​demands an end to what it terms the genocidal actions carried out‍ by the Israeli ​regime with U.S. complicity in Gaza.

    The​ text⁤ reads:

    A vast popular⁣ front alongside the ‌Palestinian people!

    Let us stop Israeli genocide on the streets and through collective struggle!

    The terror deliberately unleashed by Netanyahu in Gaza represents one of the greatest and most inhumane atrocities since World war II.

    misery continues daily without interruption-from mass displacement and massacres across gaza to the west ‍Bank and all parts of⁢ historic Palestine-under relentless fire ​from⁣ Israeli forces. ​Backed by U.S. support for years now blood‌ has been shed among Palestinians everywhere. The unbearable suffering touches every Palestinian family-men ⁢women children alike-as nearly⁤ all Palestinian lands ⁢remain under brutal Zionist occupation.⁢ The ongoing genocide in Gaza‍ is but a continuation of horrors imposed by⁢ Tel ⁢Aviv since 1940.

    In this ‌latest phase of war⁣ marked by massacres and devastation Israel has deliberately‍ killed more than 60 thousand Palestinians ‍in Gaza-including over 20 thousand children-and wounded nearly 140 thousand ⁢more causing lasting⁣ disabilities.⁣ many‌ international organizations now estimate that accounting for ‌deaths tied to disease scarcity poverty forced displacement or starvation related directly or indirectly to this Zionist war raises​ fatalities⁤ beyond 120 thousand Palestinians.
    This devastating conflict⁢ displaced almost ‍entire population segments (1.9 million out of ⁤2.2 million) within ‍tight overcrowded⁤ quarters without shelter food or water amid cold mud conditions. Most hospital ‍facilities are destroyed while hundreds of healthcare workers including WHO collaborators have‌ been killed-a⁤ catastrophic ​humanitarian crisis⁢ unfolds before our⁣ eyes.

    If throughout this protracted period ending ‌April/May 2025 daily life was⁢ a living hell under Zionist assault⁤ following late May 2025 until today Israel-with U.S backing-and aided by American private contractors stripped UN⁢ control over⁢ distributing essential aid-food water medicine-to forcibly displaced Gazans transferring authority⁢ exclusively to⁢ a‌ single Zionist entity: the Gaza Humanitarian ⁢Foundation (GHF). This coup-like action inaugurates a fresh inferno stage instigated by tel Aviv’s military machinery.

    For GHF “distribution” turns survival supplies into bullets​ fired⁢ point-blank⁣ at Palestinians queuing‌ desperately​ for flour bags: “shooting doves” carried ​out frequently enough amid perpetrators’ laughter evokes ghastly echoes perhaps⁤ only ​seen at Nazi-era forced labor camps like auschwitz or Dachau ‍where human‍ depravity reached dark unfathomable depths.

    As June 1st 2025 up until now-from initial frontline ‌massacres inside Rafah through slaughter at ‌Nasirat camp-Zionist forces aligned ⁢with GHF ‌operating along these battle ⁤zones have executed over one thousand‍ Palestinians including more than three hundred children.

    The voices emerging lately ⁣from⁤ Gazan survivors⁣ speak starkly about fascistic-nazi‌ brutality; conveyed via international press they⁤ describe:

    “We‌ are dying from hunger thirst wandering like zombies amidst ruined homes dust ⁣& debris long deprivation⁣ disturbs minds aimlessly drifting devoid comprehension aware that ​lining up before GHF carries risk being shot like ‌wild beasts but hunger thirst drive knowingly ⁢into death.”

    Civilians ⁤workers students worldwide have raised their heads high carrying proudly Palestine’s flag onto squares across continents cities-but so-called “international community” remains silent complicit with ongoing Israeli genocide.

    The signatories affirm‍ faith in grassroots mobilization power inviting all aware ‌victims face ongoing Holocaust-like oppression unite within⁣ single front popular​ mass ‍movement solidarity united struggle.
    They urge immediate intervention by ‌United Nations Security Council preventing further genocide continuation within Gaza territories insisting ceasefire establishment ensures ⁤Palestinian peoples’ right self-determination.
    Until final ‌liberation signatories stand resolutely beside​ Palestine’s citizens ⁤acknowledging⁤ legal military UN measures ‍will be challenging yet crucial remedies no illusions military-diplomatic‍ breakthrough effortless exist despite realism ⁣confidence‍ rests firmly on ideas.
    The potent idea endorsed involves UNSC-mediated intervention coupled firmly with resilient Palestinian resistance endeavor forging‌ unity strengthening ‌widespread cohesive popular ⁢mobilization execution.”

  • Italy Will Participate in Aid Efforts to Gaza

    Italy Will Participate in Aid Efforts to Gaza

    Italy has finally decided to take⁢ a‌ different approach, ​and on August 9, its army ‌and air ​force will participate in an operation called Route 2 to⁤ deliver humanitarian aid to the people of ⁢Gaza.

    According to the English section of webangah News Agency, citing Mehr ‌News Agency ⁢and the Italian magazine Tazbao, Italy has chosen to⁢ act differently by involving⁢ its military in ⁢a humanitarian mission. On August 9, its ⁣army and air force will carry out Operation Route 2 as part of efforts to ‍deliver aid to Gaza’s population.

    This ⁣unexpected move ​from Rome ⁢comes despite‌ its refusal to⁣ recognize Palestine as⁢ a state while expressing sympathy for the suffering of​ Palestinian civilians. This stance reflects a broader ​context ‍visible⁣ in other European ‌responses. Slovenia, Italy’s neighbor, made history recently as the first European country ⁢to halt arms⁤ trade with Israel.⁤ Meanwhile, eleven countries stand ready​ to recognize Palestine at the upcoming United ⁢Nations General Assembly in ⁤September: andorra, Australia, Canada, Finland, France, Luxembourg, Malta, new Zealand, Portugal, San Marino.

    If warnings from David Lammy and ⁢Keir⁣ Starmer succeed politically, this list may grow with Britain joining them-raising it to twelve countries. hamas has also declared​ that it will not ‌lay down arms until such recognition is ⁣achieved.

    Despite knowing that the current Palestinian Authority faces multiple challenges-including lack of​ institutions or ​military‍ forces ‍and a devastated economy-this⁢ government remains one without effective sovereignty ​or autonomy. Blockaded from land, airspace-and⁣ sea-the area’s residents would ⁢be⁤ forced into dependence ​on⁢ international aid while living under conditions described as a “two-state⁣ prison.”
