Speaking in an open session of Parliament on Wednesday, he said the world witnessed Israel’s horrific genocide of the oppressed people of Gaza.
With this heinous crime, the Zionists showed their true color and their stained hands to the world, proving that human rights and international organizations are meaningless words and useless in today’s world, Ghalibaf added.
The world is waiting for practical steps to confront such crimes, he stated.
The Zionists are opening the gates of hell for themselves with their own hands by enraging Muslims in the world, the Iranian official went on to say.
In addition to condemnation of this horrible crime, Muslim and Arab nations expect their governments to take measures to stop this war machine, he stressed.
After the speaker’s speech, the Iranian lawmakers chanted slogans including “Death to Israel” and “death to America” and voiced their support for the oppressed people of Palestine and Gaza.
At least 500 people have been killed in the Israeli air raid on al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza on Tuesday, according to Palestinian authorities in the besieged territory.
The actual death toll could be far higher since, according to the territory’s health ministry, “hundreds of victims are still under the rubble.”
World leaders, governments, organizations and rights groups have strongly condemned the attack.
