Israeli Military Attacks Two Mosques, Quran Radio Station in Gaza
The Israeli forces started air raids on Gaza since Saturday after Palestinian resistance forces, led by Hamas, launched a large-scale military operation against occupied lands dubbed Al-Aqsa Flood.
The Palestinian Ministry of Awqaf and Religious Affairs condemned the targeting and bombing of the Al-Amin Mohammad Mosque in western Gaza City and the Mohammad Al-Malaysi Mosque in Khan Younis Governorate.
It also condemned the destruction of the Holy Quran Radio headquarters affiliated with the Ministry, located in the Palestine Tower, which was destroyed on Saturday.
The ministry stated that targeting mosques and legitimate religious institutions constitutes a violation of the sanctity of places of worship, a prohibition upheld by all international laws and norms.
They affirmed that these crimes are not unfamiliar to the Israeli military, which target civilians.
They called on the international community to take urgent action to protect civilians and places of worship.
More than 300 Palestinians, including at least 20 children, have been killed by Israeli raids on Gaza.
