The Government Media Office in Gaza sounded the alarm on Saturday on the Israeli aggression on the Strip, warning that the occupation army has been conducting a genocidal war against the Palestinian people for 57 days, characterized by the deliberate and brutal killings of civilians, including children and women.
The government office emphasized that these crimes are carried out with full support and cover from the United States, highlighting Washington's weapons provisions to the entity since day 1 of the war, which included various types and classes of military hardware, munitions, missiles, and heavy bunker buster bombs with 2,000 pounds of explosive warheads each.
In a report published on Friday by The Wall Street Journal, the newspaper revealed that the US has supplied "Israel" so far with 73,000 bombs and shells.

The Israeli occupation struck a residential block of over 50 residential buildings and houses in al-Shujaiya neighborhood earlier today, leading to hundreds of civilian casualties, including a large number of children and women.
Additionally, in Jabalia Refugee Camp, an Israeli strike on a six-story residential building sheltering displaced families in al-Falouja area resulted in the martyrdom of at least 100 civilians.
