US Not after End to Israeli War on Palestinians in Gaza: Islamic Jihad
“At the end of this round, Israel’s weight in the region and the world will diminish. Even if the truce deal in Gaza is concluded, the battle with the Israeli occupation will not stop,” Deputy Secretary General of the Islamic Jihad Muhammad Al-Hindi said during a press conference in Beirut on Monday.
“This confrontation will increase the Palestinian people’s resilience, strength and ability to face future challenges.”
Whoever avoids confronting Israel in the region, he added, will live as a slave to it and to the US.
According to the Islamic Jihad official, Washington fears that the conflict will spread across the region.
He said that it is ironic that the US gives weapons to Israel but only throws crumbs of food to the Palestinians.
The Israeli regime has launched its deadly offensive on the Gaza Strip since Oct. 7. The Israeli attacks have killed at least 30,534 people and injured 71,920 others with mass destruction and shortages of necessities.

The Israeli war has pushed 85% of Gaza’s population into internal displacement amid acute shortages of food, clean water and medicine, while 60% of the enclave's infrastructure has been damaged or destroyed, according to the UN.
Israel stands accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice. An interim ruling in January ordered Tel Aviv to stop genocidal acts and take measures to guarantee that humanitarian assistance is provided to civilians in Gaza.
