The killing of Palestinians in Gaza must end now. Two Palestinians were killed today in Rafah, following deadly Israeli strikes that killed others in Khan Younis and elsewhere. Even areas designated as “safe zones” have offered no safety.
Palestinian officials report more than 5,100 alleged violations of the ceasefire agreement, with at least 1,471 Palestinians killed and nearly 5,200 injured. These are not merely statistics. They are human beings whose lives, homes and hopes have been shattered.
Nael Al-Buhaisi’s heartbreaking question, “Where would they go?” exposes the unbearable reality. Families are trapped among overcrowded tents, destroyed homes and the ruins of their lives. When every place becomes dangerous and every shelter disappears, where can innocent people turn?
A ceasefire that permits continued killing is not peace. It is a betrayal of humanity.
The United States must immediately suspend weapons transfers to Israel until civilian killings end and international law is respected. The international community must demand independent investigations, humanitarian access, protection for civilians and accountability for those responsible.
