"Israel failed in Gaza"
A senior Hamas official says Israel has so far failed to achieve any of its objectives in Gaza, including freeing its captives, describing it as a strategic defeat for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. Hamas representative in Lebanon Osama Hamdan reiterated the resistance group’s position that Israeli captives in Gaza will not be freed unless the regime stops its aggression. He said Hamas has many achievements thanks to the brave defense put up by its fighters, while global public opinion is tilting against the regime over its war crimes. Hamdan said Israeli crimes against patients and defenseless civilians go beyond Nazis' crimes. He said Israel is slaughtering its own captives in Gaza, citing a statement by the Israeli army that its forces shot dead three captives in Gaza. Hamdan also said Israel systematically kills journalists in Gaza and other parts of the occupied territories.
Support for Palestine
More rallies are held across the world in solidarity with Palestinians in the occupied West Bank and the Gaza Strip as Israel pushes its deadly onslaught on Gaza. In Spain, hundreds marched through Barcelona. Demonstrators held Palestinian flags and called for Palestine to be freed. In the UK, dozens of pro-Palestinian protests took to the streets of the capital, including outside the home of the Israeli ambassador in north London. Elsewhere in the US city of New York, protesters rallied in support of Palestinians and demanded a ceasefire in Gaza. Some of them carried placards showing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US President Joe Biden with blood on their hands. Countries across the world have seen back-to-back rallies since Israel began its onslaught on Gaza on October 7.
Anti-Netanyahu protests
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is in hot water as thousands of people rally once again in Tel Aviv to call for his resignation. The demonstrators held pictures of the Israeli captives held by Hamas, slamming Netanyahu for failing to bring them back to Israel. The Saturday protest comes a day after the Israeli military killed three captives in Gaza while they were holding up white flags. The al-Qassam Brigades says the regime killed the captives deliberately. Another Israeli captive was also reported dead on Saturday. Israel has so far failed to release any of the captives by military means. It has also failed to achieve any of its stated goals of the war. Israel has been the scene of anti-Netanyahu rallies for months. The Israeli prime minister has been charged with fraud, bribery and breach of trust in three cases filed in 2019.
