AhlulBayt News Agency: Iraq’s top Shia cleric Grand Ayatollah Ali Sistani urged solidarity and unity among Muslim nations to take action to end the ongoing genocide in the Gaza Strip and help its people.
The senior cleric strongly condemned the Zionist regime’s targeting of a school-turned-shelter in Gaza City that has killed over 100 Palestinians and wounded many more.
According to the office of Ayatollah Sistani, he said this heinous crime only added to the list of consecutive crimes committed by the Israeli regime over the past ten months.
Words are not enough to condemn such vicious crimes committed by those who know nothing of Islamic values and sublime principles, he stated.
Unfortunately, they have the unlimited support of some big counties that prevent the implementation of international laws regarding punishment for those committing crimes against humanity, he deplored.
He also denounced the assassinations of a number of top resistance commanders that have violated the sovereignty of some regional countries and said such moves increase the risk of widespread conflicts in the region.
The Israeli regime’s military carried out airstrikes against a school in central Gaza City when displaced Palestinians were performing dawn prayers on Saturday, killing at least 100 people.
The bomb struck Al-Taba’een School during prayers in the Daraj neighborhood. Local media reports that a fire has broken out at the school, and rescue teams are working to contain it.
According to residents of Gaza, three rockets hit the school while people were attending prayers inside the building, which serves as a shelter for displaced individuals.
Palestinian journalist Hossam Shabat reported that Palestinians are trapped inside the bombed school as a fire rips through the building. Shabat added that rescue teams are unable to assist those trapped by the flames due to the Israeli military cutting water access to the area.
The Israeli military has claimed that the school bombed in the deadly attack this morning was serving as a “Hamas headquarters.” Despite the preliminary death toll of more than 100, the Israeli military stated that “several steps were taken to reduce the possibility of civilian casualties.”
