The Palestinian Resistance movement Hamas issued a statement on Tuesday sharply criticizing the continued silence of Arab and Islamic governments in the face of what it described as a “systematic genocide and criminal starvation campaign” unfolding in the Gaza Strip.

In its statement, Hamas said the official responses so far “fall drastically short of the magnitude of the catastrophe,” as more than 2.25 million Palestinians endure extreme hunger and bombardment.  

“This deafening silence crushes the hopes of our oppressed people and emboldens [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu to persist in his policies of starvation and extermination,” the movement stated.

Hamas pointed to the worsening conditions in Gaza, where people are left without food or water while “thousands of aid trucks pile up on the Egyptian side of the Rafah crossing.”

The statement also condemned the failure of Arab and Islamic countries to implement the resolutions adopted at the emergency Arab-Islamic summit held in Riyadh in November 2023, warning that such inaction deepens Palestinian suffering.

Hamas called on regional states to break their silence and immediately activate all pressure mechanisms to end the siege on Gaza and facilitate the urgent delivery of humanitarian aid.

The movement specifically urged Arab and Muslim countries to sever all forms of ties with what it described as the “fascist occupation entity,” close down Israeli embassies, and expel its ambassadors.

It further called for the political isolation of "this criminal entity," describing such a step as a necessary beginning to deter "Israel" and compel it to halt its crimes against the Palestinian people.

Dozens killed, scores wounded

At least 77 Palestinians were killed and 376 others injured in the past 24 hours across the Gaza Strip, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health. The fatalities include five bodies of martyrs retrieved from beneath rubble as Israeli bombardment continues to target densely populated civilian areas.

Emergency crews report that many victims remain trapped under debris or lying in the open, unreachable due to ongoing airstrikes and Israeli-imposed access restrictions.

Since the beginning of the Israeli genocide on October 7, 2023, the cumulative death toll in Gaza has risen to 59,106, with 142,511 injuries. In the most recent phase of the assault, from March 18, 2025, onward, the ministry has recorded 8,268 martyrs and 30,470 wounded.

The humanitarian crisis continues to worsen as starvation spreads across the Strip. In the last 24 hours alone, five Palestinians were killed and over 52 were wounded while attempting to collect food aid. These casualties bring the total number of starved Palestinians killed during aid-seeking efforts to 1,026, with more than 6,563 injured since the beginning of the aid crisis.
