Iran Speaker Warns Israel Crime Surge Amid Global Accountability Failure

The humanitarian crisis in Gaza continues to deepen, with severe malnutrition affecting children like 18-month-old Zakaria al-Mutawaq, whose plight highlights the broader suffering caused by the Israeli blockade and military actions. Palestinian poet Mosab Abu Toha emphasizes that starvation affects even those with pre-existing conditions, underscoring the severity of the siege. Jewish law experts condemn the use of starvation as a weapon against Palestinians, stressing the moral obligation to provide aid regardless of nationality and denouncing the killing of civilians at aid distribution points. Meanwhile, Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf criticized the international community’s failure to hold Israel accountable for its actions, including the June attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities, which he argues emboldens Israel to escalate its crimes and threatens global peace. The attacks on Iran, condemned by over 120 countries but not the International Atomic Energy Agency, occurred despite ongoing nuclear negotiations and have led to heightened tensions and calls for stronger international response. These perspectives reveal a complex and escalating conflict marked by humanitarian disaster, contested international law, and geopolitical strife.
