Arab Parliament condemns escalating Zionist aggression, calls for international action
INA- sources Arab Parliament Speaker Mohammed bin Ahmed Al Yamahi condemned the ongoing escalation by Zionist forces against unarmed Palestinians, denouncing what he described as horrific massacres, forced displacement, illegal annexation of land, and repeated provocative incursions into Al-Aqsa Mosque. In a statement issued by the Parliament, Al Yamahi cited the latest violation as the storming of Al-Aqsa Mosque by Zionist minister Itamar Ben-Gvir, who raised the Zionist flag and performed religious rituals in the mosque's courtyards an act he described as a blatant provocation to Muslims worldwide and a flagrant breach of international law and United Nations resolutions. He stressed that the Zionist occupation continues to directly target civilians, destroy homes over residents' heads, and deprive thousands of basic life necessities. Among the latest casualties was Palestinian doctor Alaa Al-Najjar, who lost nine of her children in a single Zionist airstrike on her family's home in Gaza while she was fulfilling her humanitarian mission. He also referred to an airstrike earlier today that killed over 40 people and injured dozens at a school sheltering displaced persons an act Al Yamahi called a full-fledged war crime that will not expire with time, for which the occupation bears legal, political, and moral responsibility. Al Yamahi called on the international community especially the UN Security Council and the United Nations at large to break its silence, fulfill its legal, humanitarian, and moral responsibilities, and take immediate steps to halt what he called genocide and ongoing massacres. He urged accountability for the perpetrators and the protection of Palestinian civilians, particularly children. He also called for an end to settlement expansion, forced displacement, and annexation policies that undermine prospects for a just and comprehensive peace. He further warned against ongoing settler violations, under protection of Zionist forces, of Islamic and Christian holy sites, affirming that Al-Aqsa Mosque is a red line and its sanctity must not be violated. Al Yamahi reaffirmed the Arab Parliament's full support for the legitimate struggle of the Palestinian people to obtain all their inalienable rights, foremost among them the establishment of an independent Palestinian state with Al-quds as its capital and full international recognition.

Cutting off electricity to Gaza a war crime: Arab Parliament
The Arab Parliament has condemned Israel's decision to cut off electricity to the Gaza Strip, saying the move is considered a war crime. The Speaker of the Parliament, Mohammed bin Ahmed Al Yamahi from the UAE, said the move is considered a war crime and collective punishment. He also called on the international community to pressure Israel to restore basic services to the population in the Gaza Strip, including allowing aid to enter the enclave. Israeli Minister of Energy Eli Cohen on Sunday decided to halt electricity supply to Gaza in an effort to pressure Hamas into releasing hostages. Hamas described the electricity cut as "blackmail," a term it had also used after Israel blocked the aid. The truce's initial phase ended on March 1 and both sides have refrained from returning to all-out war, despite sporadic violence including an air strike on Sunday. Hamas has repeatedly called for an immediate start to negotiations on the ceasefire's second phase, aiming to end the war permanently. Israel says it prefers extending phase one until mid-April, and halted aid to Gaza over the impasse. رئيس #البرلمان_العربي يدين قرار كيان الاحتلال قطع الكهرباء عن قطاع #غزة ويحذر من تداعياته استنكر معالي محمد بن أحمد اليماحي رئيس البرلمان العربي، قرار وزير طاقة كيان الاحتلال الإسرائيلي قطع الكهرباء عن #قطاع_غزة ، محذرًا من تداعيات هذا التصعيد، معتبرًا ذلك جريمة حرب وعقابًا… — ArabParliament البرلمان العربي (@arabparlment) March 10, 2025
