May God help Gaza and its people, but the future is ours!!
Israel continues to bomb the Gaza Strip and all cities and neighborhoods for the fifth day in a row. As of yesterday, at least 849 martyrs and 4,300 wounded have fallen, hundreds of residential units and neighborhoods have been destroyed, and hundreds of thousands of elderly families, women and children have been displaced. To make matters worse and more complicated, Israel has cut off water and electricity. And fuel. The people in Gaza no longer found a place to shelter or food to eat, and they began to leave their homes, which were threatened with demolition by planes, and take refuge in hospitals, mosques, and churches, hoping that they would find safety and security.
Despite these painful conditions, the occupation, with its planes and all its other weapons, does not stop attacking Gaza that is living in these conditions.
Given these conditions, the Prime Minister of the occupation government, Netanyahu, said in a phone call with his ally and friend, US President Joe Biden, that they in Israel are forced to launch a ground invasion of the Gaza Strip, which means preparing for more destruction and violations after they destroyed more than 240 complete housing units.
In addition to these destructive practices issued by the Israeli official authorities, the settlers continued their attacks while receiving strong support from the government. Several injuries occurred among our people by settler bullets in several towns. Those who occupy our land and build cities and towns on it also burned vehicles and attacked farmers in several areas, and the worst thing is that dozens of them stormed the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque after the occupation forces closed most of the barriers leading to our promised capital, the Eternal City of Jerusalem, in the belief that they would thus make storming Al-Aqsa easier.
They realize that our people will never surrender and that they will continue to defend their land and rights. Therefore, 5 settlements were completely evacuated in the area surrounding the Gaza Strip, which was stormed by Palestinian militants. More than 150 people were captured and detained in Gaza, and about a thousand Israelis were killed and 2,800 wounded. Which prompted Netanyahu to call for the formation of an emergency government. The Israeli army spokesman also said that in Israel they are undergoing a massive recruitment campaign for reserve forces that has reached a limit of 300,000 soldiers within 24 hours. He added that this is the largest operation facing Israel.
It must be noted that most of these developments come after Palestinian forces stormed the border from the Gaza Strip and took control of Israeli settlements and sites for a period of time.
These developments must be realized by the occupation leaders, that this arrogance, tyranny, and occupation of the land cannot be tolerated or accepted, and if they are the strongest at this stage, then they must learn that the infiltration of small Palestinian forces has created all these fears, developments, and procedures for the occupation government, so what will their situation be like with Millions of our people?! Will they wake up from the slumber of these current delusions, or will they remain asleep in their ignorance?!
