Belgian minister: Israel is a war criminal

Belgium's Minister for International Cooperation has called for an investigation into war crimes committed by the Zionist regime against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. The continued aggression and crimes of the Zionist regime against the people of Gaza have angered the peoples of the world. Meanwhile, various international institutions have issued various statements condemning Israel's criminal actions and calling for an end to these crimes. According to the Sputnik news agency, Caroline Genet, Belgium's minister of international cooperation, said in a television interview on Monday evening, referring to recent crimes committed by the Zionist regime against the defenseless people of Gaza: "Israel's actions must be investigated for war crimes, and all the evidence points to this." Genet added: “In response to the Hamas attack, Israel is punishing innocent civilians and violating the laws of war.” The Belgian official demanded a review of the Belgian government's countermeasures, including restrictions on the import of products for the provisional Zionist regime and the issuance of visas to high-ranking officials of that regime. The Palestinian Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip reported that the number of martyrs in the Gaza Strip as a result of the Zionist regime's brutal attacks on the territory since October 7 has reached 10.22, of whom 4,104 are children.
