Messages of steadfastness and pride

Gaza remains the largest and most important main battlefield since the beginning of Israel’s aggression on several fronts. Amidst the continued indiscriminate killing of civilians and the targeting of anyone who moves, it can be said that the generals’ plan has begun in the northern Gaza Strip, according to a UN report that stated that Israel forced twenty thousand unarmed civilians to flee by force of arms, while the occupation falsely promoted that the operation was carried out willingly.

The siege of northern Gaza continues for the sixteenth consecutive day, and the occupation operation targets the cities of Jabalia, Beit Lahia and Beit Hanoun, amidst massacres, the latest of which was the Beit Lahia massacre, which claimed the lives of 83 citizens, amidst bombing, starvation and destruction. However, the main plan seems to have been dedicated to displacement, amidst tragic and catastrophic aspects, as buildings were bombed and completely blown up to evacuate citizens and expand the size of the buffer zone that Israel covets.

The citizens of the northern Gaza Strip are facing the hell of death, whether by killing or starvation, through the use of harsh means against them. Despite this, the number that Israel has forced to leave is a minority, as the vast majority are bound to remain forever in their positions, and their steadfastness and pride reflect this and are evident on the ground, despite the grave risks resulting from this step.

The silent international community is required to act immediately to pressure Netanyahu and his government to stop the war on northern Gaza and all parts of the Strip, especially in light of the threats of members of the Likud Party to re-settle and increase its pace on the southern border.

Israel's attempts to implement the generals' plan are a declaration of war on the lives and assets of civilians, and there is no doubt that the price has become very high. Despite this, messages of steadfastness mixed with hope despite the pain remain the title that characterizes the citizens of the north in their confrontation with the deadly war, which is being led from behind the scenes by the United States, which has given Israel a period of one month to continue slaughtering the Palestinians.


The southern suburb is burning


In the north, it seems that Israel, shaken by its many security failures, has devised a plan to destroy the southern suburb of Beirut in response to the latest attempt to attack Netanyahu, as it launched last night several intensive raids on targets that were being bombed for the first time, especially inhabited facilities and buildings, thus continuing the occupation’s daily chapters of killing and destruction, all in the absence of any horizon for a diplomatic solution, despite the two quick visits today and tomorrow, respectively, to Beirut and Tel Aviv by Biden’s envoys Hochstein and his Secretary of State Anthony Blinken.
