Northern Gaza "wiped off the map"

A group of doctors and non-governmental organizations claim that northern Gaza has been "wiped off the map" as a result of the intensified Israeli attack, now in its 11th day.

The attack escalated to a "horrendous level of atrocity," said an open letter by Dr. Mohamed Salha, acting director of Al-Awda Hospital in the Jabaliya refugee camp, one of the areas hardest hit by Israel's siege.

"The Israeli army has contacted us several times to evacuate the hospital. The wards are full of wounded and we are releasing even the wounded who have minor or moderate injuries, because we do not have enough beds for them. We demand an immediate ceasefire and an end to Israel's illegal occupation," he said. 

Hezbollah: America is the biggest devil
 

The deputy leader of Hezbollah, Naim Qassem, said today that the group considers Israel an "aggressor" that represents a real threat to the region and that Israel wants to "control all Muslims."

As he said in a televised address, Israel wants to "expand its occupation and Palestine is not enough for Israel," reports Al Jazeera.

"He (Israel) also wants to control all the territory of Arab states and all Muslims," ​​said the group's deputy leader.

According to his words, Israel implements a "massacre policy" and wants to intimidate people with "brutal crimes", has the full support of the United States government and depends on the weather, i.e. "what it cannot have today, it will take tomorrow".

Kassem noted that if the group did not confront Israel, he would achieve his goals of expansionism. He also accused the US of aiding the Israelis in "their brutal crimes in the region".

"America, the biggest devil, wants a new Middle East. (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu wants the same thing. This means that the USA and Israel are deliberately carrying out this genocide," Kasem said.
