Since October 7, 2023, almost, 15000 civilians, including thousands of children and women, in Palestine have been killed by Israeli forces. There is much speculation that the latter is intentionally targeting children and women as a weapon to draw Hamas out of their hiding places. The recent genocide of the people of Gaza started after Hamas attacks on Israel on 7^th October. Israel is using these attacks as an excuse for its beyond-the-pale atrocities and war crimes in Gaza, ignoring the fact that Hamas attacks were not conducted in isolation…

When the Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian visited Saudi Arabia in August, months before the start of the Gaza war, he declared that bilateral ties were “on the right track”. Later, in the second week of October, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammad bin Salman (MBS) had a telephone conversation about the situation in Palestine. Now, Ebrahim visited Saudi Arabia from November 13 to participate in the OIC-organized Gaza summit…

On the night of 26-27 October this year, the Israel Defense Forces launched an aggressive assault on the Gaza Strip, using tank brigades and special forces, with air and sea cover. As promised by Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, a “deadly attack” – a “combined land, sea and air attack” – hit the Gaza Strip. This offensive resulted in hundreds and thousands more Palestinian casualties (including civilians). However, to say that with this offensive the IDF has begun and completed the ground operation against Hamas would be wrong, for the resistance continues. Such a night raid by the Israeli side, supported by Western allies…

The current windfall of the Middle East crisis, as we know, began with a Hamas terrorist attack against Israeli civilians. However, the current Israeli government, encouraged by the US administration, commenced to retaliate on the basis of collective responsibility rather than punishing terrorists and criminals. Gaza is constantly bombarded. It is inexcusable what is happening to hundreds of innocent people in that Palestinian enclave, where they are being slaughtered without cause and have nowhere to go. Every day, more people are killed or injured, and the number of youngsters is approaching 4 thousand…

The United States has claimed that its aircraft carrier, USS Carney, intercepted missiles and a group of drones fired from Yemen. These missiles, according to the Pentagon, were targeted by the Yemeni Houthis towards Israel. The event is significant because the United States, by defending Israel’s airspace, has directly involved itself in a war for the first time in recent memory. This involvement comes against the backdrop of rising tensions in the region, fueled by the Israel-Gaza situation…

The Hypocrisy of States Advocating for Religion, Human Rights

The situation in Gaza has starkly revealed the insensitivity and hypocrisy of not only the Western world but also the Muslim community. Across the globe, many Muslim countries in the 21st century have experienced chaos and destruction. Yemen, Syria, Iraq, Sudan, Somalia, and others have endured prolonged suffering and devastation. However, the situation in Palestine is uniquely sensitive, with far-reaching consequences for the global order, as emphasized by numerous human rights organizations and activists. Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur…
