Rafah Massacre: Resistance Claims US Statements Encourage Israel to Kill More Gazans

Islam Times - Palestinian resistance groups have condemned recent statements by the White House spokesman regarding the Rafah carnage, asserting that these remarks encourage the Israeli regime to persist in its aggression and acts of genocide in Gaza.

The resistance groups issued a statement on Wednesday, following John Kirby's remarks a day earlier, where he stated that the regime’s deadly strikes targeting displaced Palestinians in Rafah did not cross a “red line” and would not alter Washington’s policy towards Tel Aviv.

They criticized the statements made by key figures in the American administration, labeling them as supportive of crime and terrorism. They claimed that these statements serve as motivation for the leaders of the Israeli regime to continue their violent actions, including the killing and extermination of women and children, and the commission of various crimes with impunity.

Furthermore, the resistance groups expressed dismay over the international community's silence regarding the massacres and atrocities committed against displaced women and children, which they believe emboldens the Israeli regime to flout justice. They urged people worldwide to stand against Israeli crimes and demand an end to the ongoing violence.

They emphasized that the massacres and violence perpetrated by the occupying regime in Rafah, Jabalia, and other areas of Gaza will not weaken the resolve of Palestinians and their resistance, nor will they force the resistance to surrender.

According to Gaza's Health Ministry, Israeli attacks since October 7 have resulted in at least 36,171 Palestinian fatalities and 81,420 injuries.
