The massacre committed by the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) against the displaced in Al-Mawasi Khan Yunis was not an isolated incident, but rather an extension of a recurring pattern of perpetrating genocide again
The bombing resulted in an initial toll, according to the Ministry of Health, of 90 Palestinians martyred, half of them children and women, and 300 others injured, including dozens of children and wome
Repeated Crimes
This is not the first time that the occupation forces have targeted the Al-Mawasi area, west of Khan Yunis in the south of the Gaza Strip, despite declaring it a humanitarian area and directing hundreds of thousands of displaced people to it.
Last Friday, July 12, the Israeli warplanes bombed a social development barracks west of Khan Yunis, resulting in the martyrdom of three aid distribution workers and the injury of others.
On the evening of June 27, 20 residents were martyred and more than 50 others were injured when the IOF advanced under the cover of tank shelling in the Al-Muharrarat Street and set fire to tents in Al-Mawasi.
On the evening of Sunday, May 26, 23 displaced people, including 5 women and 9 children, were martyred, and some of their bodies were burned and torn apart, and dozens more were injured with various wounds and burns, after the Israeli warplanes launched several missiles targeting the area designated for the displaced and near the UNRWA warehouses in the northwest of Rafah. Photos and video clips showed horrific scenes of the charred and dismembered bodies of the victims, including children.
On 10 March earlier this year, 14 civilians were martyred, including two elderly people, one of whom had a physical disability, 3 women, one of whom had a speech and hearing impairment, and 4 children. Others were also injured, including the elderly, women, and children, after the occupation forces stationed west of the city of Hamad, west of Khan Yunis, fired several artillery shells at the tents of the displaced people in the outskirts of Khan Yunis.
On the evening of February 20, the occupation forces carried out a ground attack in the Al-Mawasi area west of Khan Yunis, under the cover of intense air strikes. The occupation forces withdrew at dawn the following day, after killing 11 Palestinians, including 3 sisters and 3 women. Two of the martyrs, along with 8 wounded, were targeted inside the Doctors Without Borders headquarters located on Al-Rashid Street west of Khan Yunis, which was shelled by those forces.
The human rights institutions conclude that the official international silence and the continued supply of weapons to Israel is complicit in the crimes committed against the Palestinian people, especially in light of the Israeli persistence in committing the crime of genocide.
They called for putting an end to the immunity of the occupation state by stopping the supply of weapons and ammunition to it, and holding accountable the perpetrators of war crimes, crimes against humanity, and the crime of genocide.
