Tragedy of Gaza’s children exposes falseness of humanity during Eid al-Fitr

GAZA, April 01 (YPA) – With the advent of Eid al-Fitr, Gaza was experiencing a reality completely different from that of other Arab and Islamic countries from a reality of destruction, fire, and the killing of children, instead of delight and celebration.

The Israeli occupation’s missiles did not distinguish between a home housing children or a street teeming with life. The Israeli massacres in Gaza did not stop during the days Eid al-Fitr, that were supposed to be filled with happiness and peace.

The human dimensions of the tragedy.

The massacres that Gaza witnessed in the first and second days of Eid were not just numbers added to the death toll; they were horrific scenes that embodied the magnitude of the disaster.

85 civilians, including 50 children, were killed on the first day of Eid. Some were wearing their Eid clothes, and others did not even have time to wear.

These tragic moments highlight the suffering of the people of the stricken Gaza Strip, especially children, who pay the heaviest price in this unequal conflict.
International silence and ongoing complicity.

The aggression on Gaza is not a sudden event, but rather an extension of systematic policies aimed at imposing a new reality by force.

Despite timid international condemnations, major powers have not taken any real steps to stop the ongoing bloodshed.

The international community’s silence and the failure to hold the occupation accountable for its crimes raise questions about the credibility of slogans that speak of human rights and justice.

Messages of anger and resilience are being created in Gaza.

The scenes of mothers and fathers bidding farewell to their children, the images of toys and Eid clothes turned to shreds, and the images of cakes soaked in blood are not just passing details; they are messages that expose the brutality of the occupation and ignite popular anger.

They also reflect the will of the Palestinians to persevere, as Gaza, despite the pain, remains a symbol of defiance and resistance.

It also reflects the Palestinians’ will to persist, as Gaza, despite the pain, remains a symbol of defiance and resistance.

Indelible memory.

Targeting children on Eid is not just a military attack; it is a wound to the global conscience.

The tragic scenes emerging from Gaza will never be erased from the memory of Palestinians, and history will not forgive those who remained silent or complicit.

As these crimes continue, the most important question remains: When will the world hold the occupation accountable for its massacres?
