Saudi Arabia has denounced the ongoing \u201cgenocidal massacres\u201d by the Israeli forces in response to Israel\u2019s latest attack on camps for displaced Palestinians in the southern Gaza Strip, the Kingdom\u2019s foreign ministry said in a statement on Sunday.
\n\u201cThe Ministry of Foreign Affairs expresses the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia\u2019s condemnation and denunciation in the strongest terms of the continued genocidal massacres against the Palestinian people at the hands of the Israeli war machine,\u201d it said.
\nThe death toll in an Israeli attack on Khan Younis in southern Gaza on Saturday rose to 90 Palestinians along with 300 wounded, the Gaza health ministry said, in an attack that Israel claimed targeted Hamas\u2019 military chief Mohammed Deif.
\nThe Israeli strike also reportedly killed Hamas field leader, Muhammad Nahed Abu Hatab.
\nGaza\u2019s health ministry said Saturday that at least 38,443 people have been killed in the war. It added that 88,481 people had been wounded in the Gaza Strip since the war began when Hamas militants attacked Israel on October 7.
\nSaudi Arabia in its statement renewed calls for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza and a \u201cprovision of protection of unarmed civilians in all occupied Palestinian territories.\u201d
\nThe Kingdom also said there was a need to activate international accountability mechanisms regarding the continued Israeli violations of international humanitarian law and resolutions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
