Gustavo Petro, on his account on platform X (formerly Twitter), sharply criticized the attacks of the Zionist regime army on the city of Deir el-Balah in the Gaza Strip and published images of the bombing of the area, and wrote: “Isn’t the murder of 5,300 Palestinian children is anything other than a Nazi practice? Petro continued: “Gaza is witnessing mass murder.” Since October 7, the Zionist regime has launched a devastating war against the Gaza Strip, which has resulted in widespread destruction of infrastructure in the area and thousands of Palestinians tortured and injured, most of them children and women. These brutal attacks marked an unprecedented humanitarian disaster. It should be noted that the Palestinian Independent Human Rights Commission announced on Saturday that 80% of the residents of the Gaza Strip have been forced to leave their homes due to difficult humanitarian conditions. The entity also reported that Israel's goal is to turn migration within the Gaza Strip into migration outside Palestine. Since Friday morning (December 1), the Israeli army has resumed its aggression against the Gaza Strip after the end of a ceasefire that lasted about a week and during which a prisoner exchange took place between the Tel Aviv regime and the Palestinian resistance. About 60 days after the Zionist regime attacked the defenseless people of the Gaza Strip, the number of martyrs reached 16 thousand people, of which 6 thousand 600 were children and 4 thousand 300 were women. In addition, as a result of the attacks and crimes of the Zionist regime against Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip, 41 thousand 316 Palestinians were injured and 7 thousand 500 went missing.
