On Tuesday, China called on "Israel" to halt its aggression in the region of Rafah in the Gaza Strip "without delay," cautioning of an impending "severe humanitarian crisis" should the war persist. "China follows closely the developments in the Rafah area, opposes and condemns actions that harm civilians and violate international law," a foreign ministry spokesperson said in a statement.
 
Beijing urged "Israel" to immediately "stop its military operation as soon as possible, (and) make every effort to avoid innocent civilian casualties, in order to prevent a more serious humanitarian disaster in the Rafah area".

"Israel" is under increasing international pressure to consent to a ceasefire with the Palestinian Resistance, while simultaneously gearing up for a raid into Rafah, the southern Gaza border city where over a million displaced Palestinians are seeking refuge after "Israel" announced it would be a safe zone for the displaced.

Massacres in Rafah 

On Monday, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that Israeli occupation forces committed a major massacre in Rafah early in the morning, with most of the victims being women and children. Our correspondent said that Israeli occupation warplanes launched more than 50 airstrikes on Rafah, noting that the occupation forces used internationally prohibited incendiary missiles in its airstrikes.

Palestinian medical sources said that at least 100 people were martyred and more than 230 were wounded in heavy Israeli strikes on the city of Rafah, southern Gaza Strip.

In response to the massacre, the Palestinian Resistance movement Hamas stressed that the "Nazi-like" Israeli occupation army attack on the city of Rafah was considered a continuation of the genocidal war against the Palestinian people. In a statement commenting on the massacre that the Israeli occupation forces committed against the southern city, in which at least 100 Palestinians were martyred and several others were wounded, Hamas held the US administration and President Biden personally full responsibility along with the Israeli occupation government for this crime.

For its part, the Islamic Jihad Movement in Palestine affirmed that the Israeli massacre in the city of Rafah and the entity's insistence to continue carrying out its crimes is a deliberate escalation in the genocide against the Palestinian people. In a statement, the movement said, "These crimes confirm that the Nazi and criminal government of the entity does not care about public opinion or its allies among the normalization camp."
