Palestinian Ambassador Dr Tamer Almassri spoke out against a deadly attack on civilians. Israeli forces killed more than 50 people who came to collect food aid. The attack happened at a place where officials told people to come for help. Almassri said this breaks international rules. He called the violence a planned attack on innocent people.
The shooting took place near Rafah, an area that has suffered heavy damage. People followed official directions to get food but faced bullets instead. Almassri described this as a cruel new method of warfare. He said attackers target hungry families on purpose. The diplomat believes this represents a war crime against civilians.
Fighting started back during October 2023 and has continued since. Palestinian health workers report that more than 54,000 people have died. Most victims are women and children caught in the violence. Another 124,000 people have suffered injuries from the ongoing conflict. Many remain buried under destroyed buildings without rescue teams able to reach them.
Almassri criticized world leaders for staying quiet about these events. He challenged other countries to speak up and demand justice. The ambassador asked Zimbabwe and other nations to take action against what he sees as systematic killing.
