Great Satan US persist in supplying lethal weapons to ‘israel’ to commit more genocides in Gaza
US plans to continue its substantial military support for Israel, despite ongoing concerns about the escalating conflict in the Gaza Strip, where Palestinian casualties have reportedly reached at least 43,700.
On Tuesday, the US State Department confirmed that the nation remains committed to maintaining the current level of weapons supply to the Israeli military, dismissing any intentions to reduce the flow of arms.
U.S. State Department Spokesperson Vedant Patel indicated that there are currently no updates or modifications to announce regarding the nation’s stance on the matter.
The United States is aiming to maintain its provision of lethal aid, even as the regime disregards a 30-day deadline set by Washington for Tel Aviv to enhance the supply of assistance to the conflict-stricken Palestinian region.
The country’s decision to retain military aid follows a reported warning to the regime, indicating that support would be reconsidered if Tel Aviv did not adhere to the specified deadline.
Such actions by the United States would potentially violate its own legal provisions that prohibit the provision of military assistance to entities engaged in “gross violations of human rights.”
Since last October, when the regime initiated aggressive actions in Gaza, the United States—a country that typically allocates over $3 billion annually in military assistance to the regime—has supplied $17.9 billion in weapons support.
The United Nations has reported that women and children account for up to 70 percent of the casualties resulting from the intense military offensive, with a significant number of the deceased being minors aged between five and nine. Additionally, the conflict has resulted in injuries to over 103,400 individuals.
In developments on Tuesday, Ilze Brands Kehris, the United Nations Assistant Secretary-General for Human Rights, urged all nations supplying arms to the regime to reconsider their agreements.
He further cautioned that there is “ongoing and persistent obstruction of the access and distribution of humanitarian aid, which has plummeted to some of its lowest levels in the past year.”
In a recent statement, Joyce Msuya, the Acting Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs and Emergency Relief Coordinator, expressed serious concern over the escalating humanitarian crisis in Gaza. She criticized the actions taken by Israel against Palestinians, likening them to “acts reminiscent of the gravest international crimes.”
She condemned the regime for escalating its indiscriminate offensives in northern Gaza, highlighting that Israeli assaults have resulted in damage or destruction to over 70 percent of civilian homes.
In a corresponding development, eight global aid organizations, among them Save the Children and Refugees International, issued a statement expressing regret over the regime’s failure to meet benchmarks that would signify an improvement in Gaza’s humanitarian conditions. The agencies further lamented that the regime simultaneously implemented actions that significantly deteriorated the situation on the ground, especially in northern Gaza.
