In a tragic turn of events, Major General Faiq Al-Mabhouh, the respected police chief of Gaza, met his untimely demise during an aggressive Israeli military invasion at Al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City.
Gaza Police chief
Al-Mabhouh was diligently supervising the equal distribution of aid to displaced people within the sanctuary when the violent attack took place.
According to reports emanating from Arab media outlets, Hamas has officially acknowledged Al-Mabhouh’s fatal encounter amidst the Israeli airstrikes. Hamas suggests that Al-Mabhouh was specifically targeted by Israeli forces to disrupt vital aid disbursement and transportation operations essential for Gaza’s vulnerable populace.
A statement released by Hamas pledges quick retaliation against Israel’s brutal attacks, underscoring the organization’s unwavering commitment to defending people of Gaza in these testing times.
This distressing incident sheds light on the atrocious nature of Israel’s military operations and its disregard for humanity. Israel’s arbitrary detention of journalists at Al-Shifa Hospital, coupled with reports of their mistreatment, serves as a glaring indictment of Israel’s systematic efforts to obfuscate its egregious violations of human rights and international law.
Hamas, through its official communication, urgently pleads the United Nations, the Red Cross, and various human rights organizations to use their collective influence and advocacy efforts to promptly secure the release of the detained journalists, thereby upholding the principles of press freedom and human dignity.
