GAZA, (PIC)
The Hamas Movement has strongly denounced the US administration for vetoing the Algerian draft resolution at the UN Security Council calling for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza.
In a statement on Tuesday, Hamas accused the US administration of persisting in acting against the international will through its obstruction of any resolution calling for a ceasefire in Gaza.
Hamas also accused the US administration of “serving the Nazi occupation’s agenda that aims to massacre and displace the Palestinian people.”
“President Joe Biden and his administration bear direct responsibility for obstructing the adoption of a resolution ending the aggression against Gaza,” the Movement said.
“The US position acts like a green light for the occupation to commit more massacres and crimes against our defenseless people through bombing and starvation and is considered direct complicity in its genocidal war against the children and vulnerable civilians in the Gaza Strip,” it added.
The US vetoed another UN Security Council draft resolution on Israel’s war on Gaza, blocking a demand for an immediate ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.
Arab countries, led by Algeria, put the draft resolution to a vote on Tuesday with the expectation that it would not pass after the US – Israel’s key ally – had warned it would not back the text.
In a related context, member of Hamas’s political bureau Ezzat al-Resheq has warned the Israeli occupation regime against expanding its offensive into Rafah and committing more massacres and genocidal crimes against civilians
“The victory that Netanyahu is looking for is a mirage that only exists in his imagination,” Resheq said in a statement on Tuesday.
Resheq accused the Israeli premier of lying to his people and deceiving the prisoners’ families when claiming that his army can liberate them by force, stressing that “time is running out.”
“An explosion in the face of the occupation is coming in response to its intended restrictions on the access of Muslims to the Aqsa Mosque during the holy month of Ramadan,” Resheq said.
“The crying of a Gazan girl child from hunger is a shame and curse upon the entire world,” the Hamas official said, commenting on the hunger crisis in the Gaza governorate and northern Gaza.
