Following Israel's sudden invasion of Rafah City 8 days ago, thousands of Palestinian families attempting to evacuate were met with Israeli tank fire, killing and injuring dozens, with some bodies left in the streets.
A team from the Palestine Red Crescent and Civil Defense was dispatched to rescue the wounded and evacuate civilians. However, Israeli tanks besieged their convoy, which included ambulances and a fire truck.
Contact was lost with them within hours of their dispatch, and today, their bodies were found in a mass grave. They were handcuffed, executed with shots to the chest, and buried by Israeli army bulldozers.

At least 26 more Palestinians were killed in Israeli airstrikes on the Gaza Strip over the last 24 hours, bringing the death toll since October 2023 to 50,277, the Health Ministry said on Saturday, Anadolu reports.
A ministry statement said that the toll included one body retrieved from the rubble in the last 24 hours.
The ministry said 70 more injured people were taken to hospitals, bringing the number of injuries from the Israeli onslaught to 114,095.
“Many victims are still trapped under the rubble and on the roads, with rescuers unable to reach them,” the ministry said.
At least 921 Palestinians have been killed and 2,054 others injured in a surprise aerial campaign by Israel on Gaza since March 18, shattering a ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement that took hold in January.
Last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.
Re: Israel vs Palestine/Lebanon/Iran/Yemen/Syria: a New Middle East War
Soumaya Ghannoushi, a British Tunisian writer and expert on Middle East politics, examines Israel’s systematic war against Palestinian children.
From Gaza to the West Bank, she documents the unrelenting violence that has killed over 18,000 children since October 2023 - not as collateral damage, but as a consequence of deliberate policy.
Ghannoushi paints scenes of unbearable horror: children hauling younger siblings through the ruins of their homes; names written on tiny arms so bodies might later be identified; babies killed in their sleep.
She details how Palestinian children are enduring mass starvation, the spread of disease, and amputations carried out without anaesthetic - evidence, she argues, of a campaign not merely to kill, but to cripple the very future of Palestine.
She exposes how Israeli leaders and media dehumanise Palestinian children, labelling them “terrorists” to legitimise their deaths.
This language, she argues, is no accident - it is a calculated strategy: deny childhood, and you deny sympathy. Even international media often echo this erasure, refusing to acknowledge imprisoned Palestinian minors as children at all.
Tracing a line from the Deir Yassin massacre of 1948 to today’s bombings of schools and family homes, Ghannoushi contends that this violence is not new. It is doctrine - now honed to target memory, identity, and the very concept of Palestine itself.
Yet amid the devastation, Palestinian children endure.
They dream among ruins, play beside graves, and inherit from their elders the memory of a land they refuse to forget. In that survival, Ghannoushi sees a powerful act of resistance - and in their defiance, the deepest threat to Israel’s project of erasure.
“As long as there are children,” she writes, “Palestine lives.”

“What Israel is doing though… it has nothing to do with self-defense. It has everything to do with complete domination of the indigenous people of Palestine and it's to undermine their ability to survive and to live and to forcibly displaced and ethnically cleanse the land.”

Kharazi emphasized that Trump should have realized by now that the Iranian people will never bow to pressure or coercion but will respond positively to humility and honesty.
Nevertheless, Kharazi affirmed that Iran has not closed all doors and remains open to indirect negotiations to evaluate the other side, present its conditions, and make appropriate decisions accordingly.
Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei has ruled out direct negotiations with the United States under pressure, citing Washington’s history of reneging on its commitments.
MP Mohammad Raad maintained that Hezbollah is committed to ceasefire, Lebanese government must assume responsibility of deterring the enemy.
Those who claim of possessing the war decision in Lebanon are wrong, according to MP Raad who added that the Israeli enemy continues its aggression, and the Lebanese state is unable to deter it.
MP Raad stressed that the governments may become a thing of the past, while the resistance formulas get perpetuated.
“Anyone who is led by illusions to assume that resistance has become a thing of the past should beware of the intoxication of the temporary authority.”
Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf has strongly reacted to recent US threats against Iran, warning that any violation of Iran’s sovereignty would lead to a massive regional explosion.
“If the Americans violate Iran’s borders, it will be like a spark in a gunpowder depot, igniting the entire region. Their bases and allies will not be safe,” Ghalibaf stated.
Ghalibaf argued that the US calls for negotiations while it's not seeking diplomacy but rather attempting to impose its demands and weaken Iran’s defenses.
“The American leaders do not just want to undermine Iran’s economic interests; they also want to deprive us of our defensive capabilities. That’s why they talk about negotiations. But their so-called negotiations are merely a tool for pressuring Iran into disarmament. The Iranian people fully understand that forced acceptance of the enemy’s demands is a prelude to war, and no wise and courageous nation would ever accept such a thing.”
He also addressed the recent letter from the US, dismissing it as devoid of any meaningful discussion about lifting sanctions.
“This letter is nothing but typical American bullying," he said, stressing that the Iranian nation cannot be deceived or threatened.
“With the backing of our people—especially their unity and faith—alongside our wise and brave Leader and our powerful, revolutionary, creative, and battle-hardened armed forces, we stand firm on the battlefield. We do not fear threats. But the Americans know very well how vulnerable they are. If they cross Iran’s red lines, they will set off an explosion that will engulf the entire region, and their bases and their allies' bases will not be safe.”
The Deputy Coordinator of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Naghdi stated that everyone must prepare for a major operation that will bring the enemy to an end.
Brigadier General Mohammad Reza Naghdi, speaking at a Quds Day rally on Friday, emphasized that the mission of the Islamic Revolution is to defend the oppressed worldwide, but the global arrogance, through its media empire, seeks to suppress this reality. He criticized Western media for amplifying minor incidents in Iran while ignoring prolonged protests in Britain, stating, "Time and again, people in Britain have taken to the streets to protest, yet the media refuses to cover it."
Naghdi also condemned US military actions, saying, "America drops bombs on innocent civilians, kills them, and calls it self-defense. The world remains silent in the face of these crimes. Why should we not stand for the oppressed?"
Referring to the suffering of Palestinians in Gaza, he stated, "People in Gaza eat only once a day. They have no hospitals, their homes are destroyed, yet they stand with great dignity. Why should we not stand beside them? How can we look away while young girls fasting for the first time in their lives suffer from hunger? What human being can tolerate this? We must be ready for a grand operation. Know this: the Zionist regime's time is up."
He also stressed that the world is awakening and global awareness has increased due to the bloodshed and oppression inflicted by the Zionist regime.
"No human being can remain indifferent to the brutal assaults of the occupying regime on the people of Palestine and Gaza. Our youth are restless and eager to join the resistance front."
"For 46 years, we have chanted 'Death to America' and 'Death to Israel.' Now, the time has come for the nations that have risen and for the resistance to put an end to this struggle with dignity and honor. Everyone must be ready," he concluded.
I can't give you a timeline. I apologize for thinking Greater Israel was intimately linked to financial interest that stalled out around 2008. I did not realize it was military indoctrination. Now that it is clear this is not just about money, but, actually is a dangerous death cult, Zion will be ashes.

Yes, it's a laundry list of "do what I say, or I'll kill you".
It's a mouth-breathing, knuckle-dragging death cult.
Were this pursued, in the first few minutes of potential conflict, 50,000 American soldiers will die.
No one really cares about that, but, most of us do care about the overall effects of foreign policy.
For example, I'm impoverished for the privilege of us slaughtering humanity. I don't like that. Story of Amero-Fascists for as long as I can remember. I can't really recall anything else in my experience.
In a sermon delivered after Eid al-Fitr prayers in Tehran, Iran’s Supreme Leader Imam Sayyed Ali Khamenei denounced ‘Israel’ as the “only proxy force” in the region and called for its eradication.
Addressing worshippers at the Imam Khomeini Mosalla Grand Prayer Grounds, Khamenei said the criminal Zionist regime is committing genocide and must be “uprooted from Palestine.
“The Westerners accuse the zealous youths of the regional nations of being proxies. I would like to say that there is only one proxy force in this region which is the corrupt usurping [Israeli] regime,” the Leader stated.
Imam Khamenei accused ‘Israel’ of invading other countries on behalf of colonial powers and warned that any wicked act by Iran’s enemies would receive a crushing and decisive blow in response.
The Leader lamented the bloody incidents in Gaza, Lebanon and Palestine that have made the people’s lives bitter during Ramadan. He also denounced the total disregard of human rights defenders for the killing of 20,000 Palestinian children by ‘Israel’.
Khamenei called it a “religious, moral and humanitarian duty to strive to eradicate the Israeli regime” and said the people of Europe and the US would protest more if they were fully informed of “US-Israeli criminal acts.”
“This criminal gang must be uprooted from Palestine and it will be uprooted. Everyone must strive to eliminate this evil entity from the region,” the leader asserted.

Netanyahu Promises the “Final Stage” of Gaza Genocide Will Lead to Implementation of “Trump’s Plan"
Soon after Hamas announced it had accepted a ceasefire proposal, Israel responded by heavily bombing Gaza, killing children dressed for the Eid holiday, and preparing further ground invasions.
Hours after Hamas announced it had accepted a ceasefire plan, drafted by negotiation mediators from Egypt and Qatar, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu laid out his plans on Sunday for what he called the “final stage” of his genocidal campaign in Gaza. “Hamas will lay down its weapons. Its leaders will be allowed to leave. We will see to the general security in the Gaza Strip and will allow the realization of the Trump plan for voluntary migration,” Netanyahu told his cabinet on Sunday, referring to President Donald Trump’s threat to seize Gaza and remove Palestinians from their land. “This is the plan. We are not hiding this and are ready to discuss it at any time.” Netanyahu also boasted, “We have an alliance with the greatest superpower in the world.” He later said the Israeli cabinet had voted in favor of intensifying the military assault on Gaza.
Hamas’s chief negotiator, Dr. Khalil al-Hayya, announced that Hamas had accepted a deal on Saturday put forward by Qatar and Egypt, the two main regional mediators. “We do not want anything new. We want to respect what was signed, what the guarantors guaranteed, and what the international community approved,” al-Hayya said. “Out of our concern for our people and our families, we dealt with all offers responsibly and positively, with the aim of achieving our goals of stopping the war.” The Qatari-Egyptian plan to which Hamas agreed is largely based on a proposal put forward by Steve Witkoff, President Donald Trump’s special envoy, three weeks ago. The plan calls for the release of five living Israeli captives, including U.S. dual citizen and IDF soldier Edan Alexander, in return for a temporary 50-day truce and a resumption of negotiations on implementing the second phase of the January ceasefire deal.
Regarding the “Trump plan” for displacing Palestinians from Gaza, al-Hayya said, “It is impossible for us to accept humiliation and disgrace for our people. There will be no displacement or deportation.”
Israel said Saturday that it submitted a counter-proposal to the plan, saying in a statement from Netanyahu’s office that it did so “in full coordination with the US.” Citing Israeli officials, Reuters reported on Monday that, as part of a renewed truce, Israel is demanding the return of roughly half of the twenty-four living Israeli captives held in Gaza, as well as the bodies of seventeen of the thirty-five deceased.
On Monday morning, Israel issued forced displacement orders to almost the entire governorate of Rafah on Gaza’s border with Egypt—the only gateway Palestinians in the Strip have to a world beyond Israeli control. “The IDF is returning to fight with great force to eliminate the capabilities of terrorist organizations in these areas,” Avichay Adraee, the Israeli army’s Arabic spokesman, wrote on the social media site X. He included an image of a map directing thousands of Palestinians to immediately flee to Al Mawasi, an overcrowded makeshift displacement camp built on sand dunes and lacking basic necessities such as water and electricity.
Throughout the weekend, as Palestinians in Gaza observed the Eid al-Fitr holiday that ends the holy month of Ramadan, Israeli forces pummeled areas across the Gaza Strip in what local journalists described as some of the heaviest bombing of the past seventeen months. An airstrike in Khan Younis on Monday left a massive crater where a building once stood. “The massive destruction,” said Abdullah Al Attar, a Palestinian journalist in Gaza, was “caused by the occupation's missiles after targeting Al-Maqdad family's home, full of children and women.” Holding a fragment of a munition, he said in a video posted on social media, “[it] weighs more than 15 kilograms. These are the war missiles which the occupation uses against civilians.” A neighbor who witnessed the attack told Al Attar, “The children were happy for Eid and were sleeping. I didn't hear the strike, and woke up from my sleep to the sound of [the Maqdad] children screaming. I didn't know where I was, and I thought my children and husband were killed.”
At least fifty-three Palestinians were killed in Israeli attacks on Sunday alone. An Israeli airstrike on displaced people in Khan Younis killed sixteen people, including nine children and three women, according to local medical officials. “They died in their Eid outfits,” a female relative of the victims told Al Jazeera Arabic. “Why did they do this to us?” Among the sites hit were tents housing displaced people. Gruesome images, posted on social media by witnesses, depicted the bodies of bloodied children killed in the attack. They had to be lifted from the shredded ruins of tents and blankets.
In Shujaiya, a neighborhood in eastern Gaza City, an airstrike on a family home killed several people, including at least one small child. “We are dying. This is the first day of Eid. This is a child, do you see him?” said a man as he carried the child’s blood-soaked body through the streets. “God is sufficient for us, and he is the best disposer of affairs. He is going to celebrate a better Eid in Heaven with God.”
One medical volunteer in Gaza reported Sunday that they “spent the entire morning and afternoon cutting brand new Eid clothes off dead children.” Over the past 48 hours, according to the Ministry of Health in Gaza, eighty people have been killed and more than 300 injured in Israeli attacks. These statistics are likely an undercount, as they only include people who have been brought to hospitals and other medical facilities.
Since Israel resumed its genocidal war against Gaza, senior Israeli officials have vowed that, if Hamas does not unilaterally release Israeli captives, they will “permanently” seize Palestinian land. “The more Hamas persists in its refusal to release the hostages, the more territory it will lose, which will be annexed to Israel,” declared defense minister Israel Katz soon after the resumption of massive airstrikes against Gaza on March 18. Those attacks have killed more than 1,000 Palestinians—the majority of them children and women.
As Israel continues its terror bombings of Gaza, evidence continues to mount that Israeli forces recently summarily executed more than a dozen aid workers from the Palestinian Red Crescent (PRCS) and local civil defense crews in Rafah on March 23. Israel initially stated that its forces fired on “suspicious vehicles” in the area, but later acknowledged its forces shot at an ambulance and other rescue vehicles. In an attempt to provide first aid to people injured in an Israeli attack, rescue and medical workers had deployed to the Hashashin area of Rafah, and had not been heard from since. On Saturday, officials from the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) accompanied Palestinian Red Crescent workers to the scene of the massacre to recover the bodies from what officials described as a “mass grave.” A UN worker was one among those found dead.
The head of OCHA’s local office, Jonathan Whittall, said in a post on X that the missing workers were dispatched to rescue injured people when “all five ambulances and one fire-truck were struck, along with a UN vehicle that arrived later.” For five days after the incident, he said, Israel denied the UN the right to retrieve or aid the rescue workers. In one attempt to reach the site, Israeli forces opened fire on more civilians in the area, shooting one Palestinian woman in the head along with a man who tried to rescue her. “Returning the next day, we were finally able to reach the site and discovered a devastating scene: ambulances, the UN vehicle, and fire truck had been crushed and partially buried. After hours of digging, we recovered one body—a Civil Defense worker beneath his fire truck,” Whittal said on Sunday. “On the first day of Eid, we returned and recovered the buried bodies of 8 PRCS, 6 Civil Defense and 1 UN staff. They were killed in their uniforms. Driving their clearly marked vehicles. Wearing their gloves. On their way to save lives. This should never have happened.” In all, fifteen bodies were recovered from the scene.
Yousef Harb, Deputy Minister of Health in Gaza, provided an update from Nasser hospital: “Some of the Civil Defense members were found handcuffed. Almost all of them had gunshot wounds to the head and chest, and they were buried in deep holes.” The Palestinian Red Crescent issued a demand “that the perpetrators of this war crime be held accountable, that an immediate and urgent investigation be conducted to ensure justice for the victims of this massacre.”
"The weapons of resistance are a red line"
Tom Fletcher, the UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, said in a statement that Israel’s renewed attacks on Gaza has seen “Patients killed in their hospital beds. Ambulances shot at. First responders killed.” He added that “the International Court of Justice’s provisional measures in the case on the application of the Genocide Convention remain in place. And yet, this continues without accountability. So, if the basic principles of humanitarian law still count, the international community must act, while it can, to uphold them.”
From the moment a “ceasefire” deal with Hamas was signed on January 17, Israel has systematically violated the agreement by continuing to kill Palestinians. While the delivery of food and medical supplies increased during the first 42-day phase of the deal, Israel largely blocked the delivery of tents, mobile homes, and construction equipment to the Strip and refused to negotiate the implementation of the second 42-day step of the deal. The second phase would have seen the complete withdrawal of Israeli forces from Gaza and the release of all remaining Israeli captives. Instead, Israel announced a full-spectrum blockade of Gaza, barring any aid or food deliveries. Israel shut off the Strip’s remaining electrical supplies and then resumed the full scale war on March 18 with a series of massive strikes across Gaza that killed nearly 200 children in a matter of hours.
While Palestinian resistance fighters have launched a few rocket attacks against Israel in response, forces from Hamas’s Qassam Brigades and Saraya al-Quds, the armed wing of Palestinian Islamic Jihad, have largely held their fire in the face of massive Israeli attacks. That is due, in part, to the fact that Hamas’s political negotiators have continued talks with international mediators and publicly issued calls for the world community to compel Israel to cease its violations of the deal and to return to the agreed framework.
Netanyahu has maintained that Israel will only negotiate while continuing its military assault on Gaza and that no lasting deal will be achieved that does not ultimately result in the disarmament of Hamas and the expulsion of its leaders from the Strip. Neither of these demands were part of the ceasefire deal signed in January.
Hamas has publicly stated that it does not seek to govern Gaza and would relinquish formal control of the Strip to an independent technical committee run by Palestinians. It has also maintained that the disarmament of resistance forces in Gaza will not be up for negotiation until Palestine has its own official armed forces capable of defending its right to self-determination and to resist colonial occupation.
“We say frankly to those who bet that Hamas and the resistance factions can abandon their responsibilities or surrender our people and our families to an unknown fate controlled by the occupation as it pleases, we say to them: You are delusional,” said al-Hayya, Hamas’s chief negotiator. “As for the weapons of resistance, they are a red line, and they are linked to the existence of the occupation and the establishment of an independent Palestinian state. If the occupation persists, it will remain a weapon for the people and the state, protecting their capabilities and rights.”

ISRAEL ORDERS ALL OF RAFAH TO BE EMPTIED
The Israeli Army has issued new forced displacement orders for residents of the city of Rafah, the municipalities of Al-Nasr and Al-Shawk, and the neighborhoods of Al-Salam, Al-Manara, and Qizan Al-Najjar. Israel has ordered people to “move immediately to the shelters in Al Mawasi” along the coast.
The order says the “Israeli army is returning to fight with great force to eliminate the capabilities of terrorist organizations in these areas.”
As FT and Haaretz reported last week, Israel had prepared plans for a full scale invasion of Gaza with over 50,000 soldiers which would entail confining Palestinians to the so-called al-Mawasi“ humanitarian zone” along the coast.

Maybe some, or even each, of them are, “rgray222”, but their accumulation into a barrage constitutes a vindictive rhetorical propaganda exercise.
The United Nations is fundamentally destructive, undermining the values they are supposed to promote. The organization is so laced with corruption that it makes Hamas, Hezbollah, and American Democrats appear saintly. They are inept with a deep-rooted toxic culture that permeates the organization from stem to stern. The membership is irresponsible and reprehensible, and they are directly and indirectly guilty of multiple genocides and mass murders on a scale rarely seen. When someone speaks the truth to them, as in the video above, they cower in fear of the truth. The vast majority of humans on this planet have no idea how evil or extreme Islamic the United Nations has been over the years. Much of the money they have been given by the US government and the money they beg from citizens around the world for UNICEF ends up killing innocent men, women and children. It is truly a time for a global awakening.
