NAIROBI May 28. 2024 (Saba) - Musa Mohamed, the Chairperson of the African Union Commission, has condemned the airstrikes carried out by the Zionist enemy's army on a displaced persons' camp in the Rafah area, south of the Gaza Strip.
Mohamed stated in a press release "Israel continues to violate international law with complete impunity, in defiance of the International Court of Justice."
He added "The decision of the International Court of Justice, the highest court in the United Nations, which ordered Israel on May 24 to immediately cease its military attack in Rafah, must be urgently implemented if the global order is to prevail."
Dozens of Palestinians, mostly children and women, were killed and injured in a Zionist bombardment on Sunday/Monday night, targeting tents of displaced persons near a UN headquarters in the Tel Sultan area northwest of Rafah, which the enemy claimed to be "safe" without prior warning.
Footage circulated on social media showed charred bodies of child martyrs and civilians, some of whom had been mutilated.
The Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip stated: "The enemy committed a massacre in Rafah, south of the Gaza Strip, by shelling the tents of the displaced in areas claimed to be safe and urged the displaced to take refuge in them."
Meanwhile, since October 7 last year, the Zionist enemy's army has continued its aggression on the Gaza Strip, with American and European support, bombarding the vicinity of hospitals, buildings, towers, and the homes of Palestinian civilians, destroying them over the heads of their inhabitants, and preventing the entry of water, food, medicine, and fuel.
The ongoing Zionist-American aggression on Gaza has resulted in the martyrdom of 36,065 people and the injury of 81,026 others, in addition to the displacement of around 1.7 million residents of the sector, according to United Nations data.
