For one more day, Israel continues its atrocities against the Palestinian people, with the open support of the United States, which not only arms the hand of the murderous state but at the same time attempts to stifle those voices that react to this crime.

In recent hours, the Israeli military has launched a series of deadly attacks that have killed dozens of Palestinians, with most of the casualties occurring in areas where residents are struggling to survive in famine conditions.

According to hospital sources, 18 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli fire in Gaza since dawn, with more than half of them people waiting for some help in the slaughterhouses set up by Israel and the U.S. NGO "Humanitarian Foundation for Gaza" (GHF), supposedly to distribute humanitarian aid.

A particularly heinous attack took place near the GHF "aid distribution center" northwest of Rafah, where 10 people were killed and more than 60 wounded by Israeli sniper fire. Locals reported panic at the scene, with security contractors and the Israeli army firing to disperse the hungry crowds.

At the same time, Israel attacks schools housing displaced Palestinian families in northern Gaza, with many children dying in these attacks.

In the occupied West Bank, Israeli forces carried out raids, arresting 10 Palestinians in various areas, including Hebron and Nablus. These operations include the arrest of relatives of suspects, such as the father of a Palestinian involved in a knife attack on an Israeli, indicating a broad strategy of repression.

At the same time, UN officials continue to denounce Israel's actions, citing genocide and war crimes. The head of the United Nations Office for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), Filip Lazarini, has warned that the rules and values of the international community are being "buried" in Gaza, while the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights speaks of at least 798 murders in "death traps" as aid points and humanitarian processions have been converted, with 615 related to the notorious "Humanitarian Foundation for Gaza".

The UN special rapporteur on the Palestinian issue, Franceca Albanese, in an interview with Al Jazeera, said: "Of course I have criticized Israel. He has committed genocide and crimes against humanity and war crimes." Albanese, which investigates violations in the occupied territories, recently published a report accusing 60 companies, including American companies, of supporting Israeli settlements and military actions.

U.S. sanctions on those who expose Israeli crimes

Albanose's allegations of Israeli crimes and U.S.-NATO support for them have drawn U.S. outrage. U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced sanctions on Albanese on Tuesday, claiming that her work led to "unlawful prosecutions of Israelis" at the International Criminal Court (ICC)!!

Albanese herself told Al Jazeera: "I want to remind everyone that the reason why these sanctions are imposed is to seek justice." She added that the U.S. tactics reminded her of "mafia intimidation techniques," implying that "sanctions will only work if people are afraid and stop getting involved."

The sick plans of the imperialists are advancing

Along with the Israeli attacks, negotiations for a ceasefire continue. Although Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said in previous days that his country was likely to reach a 60-day ceasefire agreement with Hamas "within a few days," he finally left the U.S. after a four-day visit and meetings with U.S. President Donald Trump, speaking of the "impossible" of reaching a comprehensive agreement.

Hamas, for its part, denounced the "war criminal" Netanyahu, saying his statements about the impossibility of a comprehensive agreement "confirm his malicious intentions." The Palestinian organization noted that the Israeli prime minister is putting obstacles in the way of releasing prisoners and stopping the aggression.

Besides, the actions of the Israeli state confirm that its goal is the implementation of the sick plans of the imperialists, which among other things include the displacement of the Palestinians. Satellite images published by Al Jazeera reveal plans to set up a concentration camp in Rafah, in southern Gaza, with Israel's defense minister stating that the entire population of Gaza (over two million people) will be moved there.

Greece, France and Italy turned a blind eye to the war criminal

Finally, with regard to Netanyahu's aforementioned flight, it is worth noting that Albanese criticized Italy, France and Greece, which have co-signed the Rome Statute (and supposedly recognize the jurisdiction of the International Criminal Court) for allowing the Israeli prime minister to use their airspace. According to Albanese, the three countries provided "safe passage" to the criminal Netanyahu when he flew over their territory, although they were theoretically "obliged" to arrest him as an internationally wanted suspect.
