Havana, August 18 (RHC)-- Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodríguez has denounced the genocide carried out by Israel against the Palestinian in the Gaza Strip, where more than 40,000 people have been killed.

Through the social network X, Bruno Rodriguez wrote: “There are more than 40,000 Palestinians massacred in Gaza and nearly two million Gazans exposed to Israeli genocide.”

The Cuban foreign minister stressed: “We denounce the impunity with which the government of Israel continues to act, which ignores repeated calls from the international community to put an end to these crimes.”

Tel Aviv, despite repeated calls by the international community for a ceasefire in Gaza continues to bomb several areas of the enclave, including refugee camps.

The Gaza Health Ministry reported that during Saturday more than 11 people were killed and dozens injured, including several children, after a number of Israeli air strikes on various areas.

Meanwhile, the Israeli occupation ordered a new forced evacuation in south-central Gaza, an area that had earlier been classified by the military as a so-called “safe zone.”

The international community has spoken out about the Israeli genocide against the Palestinian people and condemned the constant attacks, human rights violations, arbitrary detentions, as well as the scarcity of water, medical supplies and fuel.
