Tunisia called for accountability for Israeli officials over Gaza’s genocidal war

Tunisia urged the international community to take action against Israel's lawlessness, stressing that the ceasefire deal should not deter supporters of justice and truth around the world from continuing to prosecute the officials of the occupying regime.

Hawzah News Agency- "The ceasefire agreement should not deter supporters of justice and truth around the world from continuing to prosecute the officials of the occupying regime for the crimes of genocide and widespread atrocities committed against the Palestinian people," Tunisia's Foreign Ministry said in as statement.

Tunisia reaffirmed its support for the Palestinian cause and emphasized the Palestinians' right to establish an independent state with al-Quds as its capital.

The Foreign Ministry described the ceasefire agreement as an important step following "16 months of systematic genocide that have left deep scars on the collective conscience of humanity."

The ministry praised the resilience and sacrifices of the Palestinian people, who "shed their precious blood in defiance of the machinery of destruction and oppression to secure their inherent right to dignity and life."

Tunisia called on the international community to act against Israel's "lawlessness" and ensure that the ceasefire remains effective, the siege on Gaza is lifted, and humanitarian aid and reconstruction efforts are facilitated to restore the dignity and security of the Palestinian people.

Local authorities have reported that almost 46000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, have lost their lives, with over 110,700 others injured since the Israeli atrocities on October 7, 2023.

In November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant, accusing them of committing war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
