Gov't media in Gaza: Number of martyred journalists rises to 231 since start of genocide
Gaza - Saba: The Government Media Office in the Gaza Strip announced on Wednesday that the number of martyred journalists in the Gaza Strip since the start of the Zionist genocide has risen to 231 journalists, following the martyrdom of journalists Tamer Al-Za'anin and Walaa Al-Jabari. In a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), the Government Media Office condemned in the strongest terms the assassination of journalists by the Israeli enemy: martyr Tamer Al-Za'anin, who worked as a photojournalist for several media outlets, and martyr Walaa Al-Jabari, who worked as a newspaper editor for several media outlets. The office called on the International Federation of Journalists, the Arab Journalists Union, and all journalistic bodies in all countries of the world to condemn these systematic crimes against Palestinian journalists and media professionals in the Gaza Strip. The office held the Israeli enemy, the US administration, and countries participating in the genocide, such as the United Kingdom, Germany, and France, responsible for the assassination. He bears full responsibility for committing these heinous, brutal crimes. He called on the international community, international organizations, and organizations involved in journalism and media work in all countries of the world to condemn the crimes of the Zionist enemy, deter it, prosecute it in international courts for its ongoing crimes, and bring its criminals to justice. He also called for serious and effective pressure to stop the crime of genocide, protect journalists and media professionals in the Gaza Strip, and put an end to the killing and assassination of them.

Hamas Calls for Broadest Popular, Mass Movement in All Capitals, Cities of World
Doha - Saba: The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) called on the masses of the nation and all free people around the world on Wednesday for the broadest popular and mass movement in all capitals and cities of the world on Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and the rest of the coming days, until the siege is broken and the famine in the Gaza Strip ends. Hamas said in a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba): "In light of the escalating crime of starvation and genocide perpetrated by the Zionist enemy in the Gaza Strip, where people are dying from hunger and malnutrition, and famine is making its deadly presence felt in the faces of children, mothers, and the elderly, amidst a disturbing global silence and the absence of any action that rises to the scale of the catastrophe, we issue our appeal for besieged Gaza, for those suffering a slow death, and for a people fighting genocide with all their remaining breath." She added: "Let the coming days be a resounding cry in the face of the Zionist enemy and a disgrace to those who remain silent. Let demonstrations, sit-ins, and angry marches be launched in front of the embassies of the Zionist enemy and American embassies, in public squares, on the streets, in universities, and across every media platform. Let the entire world chant: 'Stop the crime of starvation.'" Hamas emphasized that what is happening in the Gaza Strip represents a watershed moment in the human conscience to support Gaza and stop the crime of genocide and starvation. With American and European support, the Israeli enemy army has continued to commit crimes of genocide in the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, resulting in the martyrdom of 59,106 Palestinian civilians, the majority of whom are children and women, and the injury of 142,511 others, as of yesterday, Tuesday, in a preliminary toll. Thousands of victims remain under the rubble and on the streets, unable to be reached by ambulance and rescue crews. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print

Enemy demolishes car wash, garage in Bethlehem
Bethlehem/Occupied Quds - Saba: Israeli enemy forces demolished a car wash and a garage in the village of Al-Jab'a, south of Bethlehem, while Israeli settlers attacked an agricultural facility southeast of occupied Quds. The head of the Al-Jab'a Village Council, Diab Masha'la, said that an Israeli army force, accompanied by a bulldozer, stormed the village and took up positions at the western entrance to the village. They demolished a car wash and a garage for car repair (painting and mechanics) belonging to him, under the pretext that they were unlicensed. He noted that the enemy notified him of the demolition about two months ago. Masha'la added that there are fears that the enemy forces will demolish a kindergarten and a park belonging to the village council under false pretenses. In a related development, Israeli settlers attacked an agricultural facility in the town of Al-Sawahra, southeast of occupied Quds, on Wednesday. The Quds Governorate reported that settlers stormed an agricultural facility belonging to the Salama Shakirat family and assaulted the sheep, leaving them homeless. They also smashed an agricultural tractor, broke windows, and damaged the contents of rooms. They also destroyed solar panels, surveillance cameras, and a fence surrounding the facility, as well as quantities of fodder. The Governorate stated that this attack is not the first of its kind, but rather part of a series of escalating violations against Jerusalemites in the area. Settlers had previously assaulted a farmer a few days earlier, amid the Zionist enemy's continued harassment of residents, prosecuting them for violations, and detaining some of them while on their land. The governorate held the Israeli enemy fully responsible for these crimes, citing its support for the settlers, its provision of protection, and its cover-up of their attacks. It noted that the Quds desert is being targeted by systematic settlement plans aimed at displacing its residents, but that the residents remain steadfast and cling to their lands despite ongoing displacement attempts.
