US Senator Bernie Sanders today
called for an end to military aid to Israel, condemning Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu’s government for resuming bombing in Gaza.
“Netanyahu has not allowed any
food, water, or fuel into Gaza in two weeks. Now he has resumed bombing,
killing hundreds of people and breaking the ceasefire that had given
Gaza a chance to live again,” Sanders wrote on X.
Washington has long been criticised for its support for Israel’s genocidal war in the Gaza Strip.
The Israeli occupation army’s
latest strikes killed over 404 Palestinians, mostly civilians, including
women and children, in its latest and most aggressive violation of a
ceasefire agreement that took effect on 19 January, the Palestinian
Health Ministry said.
More than 48,500 Palestinians
have been killed, mostly women and children, and over 112,000 others
injured in a brutal Israeli military campaign in Gaza since October
2023.
In November, the International Criminal Court (ICC) issued arrest warrants for
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defence
Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in
Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) for its war on the enclave.
