The Israeli army controls over 77% of the Gaza Strip, local authorities said on Sunday, Anadolu reports.

“Field data and verified analysis indicate that the Israeli occupation forces now effectively control approximately 77% of Gaza’s total geographic area,” Gaza’s government media office said in a statement.

The Israeli army gained control through “direct ground offensives, the deployment of its forces in residential and civilian areas, or preventing Palestinians from accessing their areas, lands, and properties via intensified fire, or forced evacuation,” it added.

The office strongly condemned the Israeli plans of mass displacement, ethnic cleansing, systematic genocide, and settler colonialism by force, “under the cover of a siege and an open war targeting both people and infrastructure.”

It held Israel and its supporters, including the US, UK, Germany, and France, fully responsible for the crime of genocide in Gaza.

    No a lot of the old resistance weren’t tools, but they (Israël) have learned from that. So they have cultivated resistance that is shaped to look like the kind of thing the West fears (wether you call it Islamophobia or not, it works) . Secular, leftist groups easily got sympaty abroad while religiously inspired fanatics get easily classified with groups like ISIS or Boko Haram. And I’m not saying they are like thise groups just that they have properties that allow people to classify them in the same range, and that is by Israeli design.

    If you want help in your war, get an enemy that other people don’t like as well. Make them strong enough that they can really hurt, but not strong enough that they have a chance of winning and let them attack civilians and minor military targets but never the real policy makers. That is absolutely what Israel has done.

      Violence in terrorism in resistance group has zero influence on how the west was backed

      The western media don’t talk about the colonization when there is no hamas attacks. Most of the western west pro palestinians also only wake up when palestinian resistance escalate

      The plo and fatah was always secular groups they was labeled as terrorist groups because they did armed resistance and of course with some terrorism operation

      Without resistance groups regardless of if it is violent or not, israel would still maintain the occupation , settlers would keep harrasing palestinian and the west would be totally silent

      This is the dangerous status quo that you don’t realize that your logic imply
