The Israeli regime's foreign minister Eli Cohen said on Wednesday that the war on Gaza will persist regardless of international support.

"Israel will continue the war against Hamas with or without international support," Cohen said as quoted by Reuters. "A ceasefire at the current stage is a gift to the terrorist organization Hamas, and will allow it to return and threaten the residents of Israel." 

The UN General Assembly voted on Tuesday to implement an urgent humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza. US President Joe Biden, the leader of "Israel's" staunchest ally, cautioned Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that international support was waning.

"Israel", Biden said, "has the European Union, it has Europe, it has most of the world supporting them, but they’re starting to lose that support by indiscriminate bombing that takes place."

The Israeli aggression on Gaza has resulted in extensive destruction all across the Strip. Gaza authorities report a death toll exceeding 18,000 martyrs, while UN agencies indicate that over 80% of the 2.3 million population have been displaced from their homes.

Cohen further urged the international community to act "effectively and aggressively" to safeguard global shipping lanes. The Yemeni resistance has issued a warning, stating that they view shipping bound for "Israel" or Israeli-linked interests as legitimate targets in the Red Sea.
