Hamas: Denying the crimes of genocide and displacement in Gaza amounts to war crimes

GAZA, Nov. 16 (YPA) -The Islamic Resistance Movement, Hamas, said that the statements issued by the US State Department, which claim that it has not seen forced displacement operations in Gaza, amount to war crimes or crimes against humanity.

In a press release on Friday, Hamas commented on the US statement that the UN committee’s report on the occurrence of genocide in Gaza is baseless accusation, saying that it reflects the hostile American behavior that aligns with unprecedented crimes being committed under American patronage in the Gaza Strip.

Hamas pointed out that the criminal policy adopted by the US administration, which denies the ongoing massacre in the Gaza Strip and the ethnic cleansing, forced displacement, and starvation that our unarmed people face, while continuing to provide the necessary political and military cover for the fascist Israeli government to persist in these actions, confirms this administration’s responsibility for the horrific war crimes still being committed in Gaza for more than four hundred days.

It continued, “US Secretary of State Antony Blinken and the Zionist war criminals are deluding themselves into thinking they can subjugate our people and their resistance or impose projects for what is called ‘the day after the war’ that undermine our national rights.”

Hamas affirmed that “there is no future for this fascist occupation on our land, and our people will continue their steadfastness and resistance until the aggression is broken and our land and holy sites are cleansed of the filth of the fascist occupiers.”
