Iranian Foreign Minister Hossein Amir-Abdollahian commented on the resumption of the Israeli aggression on Gaza, calling out the US-Israeli aggression as a "new genocide in Gaza."

Amir-Abdollahian said in his post that the only way the Israelis can free their captives is through "an open-ended ceasefire, the extensive delivery of humanitarian aid, and agreement on fresh exchange of prisoners."

Hamas, PFLP hold US responsible for renewed Israeli aggression on Gaza

Palestinian Resistance movement Hamas held the Israeli occupation responsible for resuming the aggression on the Gaza Strip after it refused to accept proposals to release Israeli captives.

Immediately after the expiration of the humanitarian truce between the Palestinian Resistance and the Israeli occupation, "Israel" renewed its aggression on Gaza, bombing civilian houses indiscriminately and killing tens of Gazans across the besieged Strip in a couple of hours.

In a statement on Friday, the movement stressed that the Israeli occupation bears responsibility for the resumption of war and the Nazi aggression against the Gaza Strip, after refusing throughout the night to accept all offers to release additional captives.

Likewise, the movement held the US administration and its President Joe Biden fully responsible for the continuation of Zionist war crimes in the Gaza Strip, citing its absolute support for it, and after the green light it gave it again following the visit of its Secretary of State, Anthony Blinken, to "Israel" on Thursday and his announcement of the Israeli occupation’s intention to resume the aggression.
