HAMAS SAYS MINISTER’S NUKE REMARKS SHOW LEVEL OF ZIONIST REGIME’S DECADENCE

Hamas Says Minister’s Nuke Remarks Show Level of Zionist Regime’s Decadence

TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The Palestinian resistance movement Hamas condemned the racist remarks recently made by a far-right Israeli minister, who called for dropping an atomic bomb on the besieged Gaza Strip.

Israeli heritage minister Amichai Eliyahu said in an interview with Israel’s Radio Kol Berama on Sunday that using an atomic bomb against Palestinians in Gaza was “one of the possibilities,” and insisted that allowing any humanitarian aid into the blockaded area was wrong.


“The statement by Eliyahu that throwing a nuclear bomb on the Gaza Strip is one of the solutions did not come out of nowhere, but rather is an expression of the level of decadence, Nazism, and sadism that is taking place in the corridors and minds of this occupying entity,” Hamas said in a press release.

The Palestinian resistance movement added that the illegal entity is founded on killing and genocide, and treating others as animals.

Hamas called the Israeli occupation leaders Nazi terrorists and urged the international community, the United Nations, and the relevant international courts to take the necessary urgent measures to stop the occupying regime's war in the Gaza Strip and to hold its authorities accountable for their horrific crimes.


“International silence or inaction would encourage these murderous terrorists to continue the massacre of the century and the war of extermination against our people,” the press release said. “It will turn the entire region into a volcano of flames that threatens the region and the world.”

The unprecedented Israeli bombardment of Gaza began on October 7, when Hamas-led Palestinian resistance groups launched Operation Al-Aqsa Storm in the occupied territories in response to the regime’s intensified crimes against Palestinians.

The death toll from Israel’s genocidal attacks has reached at least 9,770 people. More than 26,000 people, mostly women, children and the elderly, have been wounded as well.

The regime has also cut off one of the most densely populated places in the world from basic supplies, such as water, electricity, and fuel. Shortage of medical supplies and food have left 2.3 million Palestinians at risk of starvation.


In a related development on Sunday, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and the Arab League condemned the extremist statements by Eliyahu.

Saudi Arabia’s Foreign Ministry said not dismissing the minister from the cabinet immediately and merely freezing his membership reflects the height of Israeli disdain for all human, moral, religious, and legal standards and values.

In a statement, the Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs censured the incendiary remarks as a call for genocide and a hate crime that cannot be tolerated, reiterating that the remarks are a condemnable incitement to murder and committing more war crimes against the people of the Gaza Strip.


Such statements represent a flagrant and unacceptable violation of international norms and international humanitarian law, and a dangerous escalation that requires the international community to act immediately to address them, the statement said.

The Jordanian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said the international community must confront hate speech through effective steps that would oblige Israel to stop its continuing attacks on the Palestinian people in Gaza and the occupied West Bank.

Moreover, Secretary-General of the Arab League Ahmed Aboul-Gheit said in a post on his X social media account that the statements reinforce the reality of the “racist view” of the Israelis towards the Palestinian people.

Aboul-Gheit said these statements reveal the true face of Israel and everyone who defends it in the West.

Poll: US Public Support for Israel Wanes as 68 Percent Call for Ceasefire

  TEHRAN (FNA)- Israel’s war on Gaza is upsetting many Americans who think it must follow growing demands for an immediate ceasefire, according to a new poll. The Reuters/Ipsos survey found only 32 percent of respondents said “the US should support Israel”. That is down from 41 percent from a poll conducted on October 12-13 – just days after the war broke out. About 68 percent of respondents said they agreed with the statement, “Israel should call a ceasefire and try to negotiate”. Some 39 percent supported the idea “the US should be a neutral mediator”, compared with 27 percent a month earlier. Only 4 percent of respondents said the United States should support Palestinians, while 15 percent said the US shouldn’t be involved at all in the war. While the US has been a significant Israeli ally, just 31 percent of respondents said they supported sending Israel weapons. The plunge in support...

US ‘Biggest Nuclear Threat’: China

  TEHRAN (Tasnim) – The United States poses the greatest danger to the world when it comes to the risks of a potential nuclear conflict, Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Zhang Xiaogang told journalists on Friday. Beijing has accused Washington of making “irresponsible decisions” in attempts to maintain its hegemony, including through intimidating the international community with its nuclear arsenal, RT reported. The damning statement came in response to the Pentagon’s decision to upgrade US Forces Japan into a joint force headquarters under the command of a three-star officer reporting to the commander of the Indo-Pacific Command. The announcement was made by the US Defense Department in late July following the meeting of the American and Japanese defense and foreign policy chiefs. US Defense Secretary Llyod Austin hailed the development as “one of the strongest improvements in our military ties with Japan in 70 years” at that time. He also said that the two sides “held a separ...
