Furthermore, Spain's acting social rights minister, Ione Belarra, said on Friday that "Israel is seeking more impunity to commit the worst atrocities” by completely cutting off Gaza’s communications with the world.

Belarra's remarks came after the Israeli occupation army announced that its ground forces would expand their activities in the Gaza Strip during the night, indicating that a ground invasion may have begun.

"Israel has cut off all communications in the Gaza Strip. The objective is clear; they want even more impunity to commit the worst atrocities," Belarra wrote in English on X.

Israel has cut off all communications in the Gaza Strip. The objective is clear; they want even more impunity to commit the worst atrocities. The response of people in our countries must be massive. Not with our silence, not in our name.

"The response of people in our countries must be massive. Not with our silence, not in our name," she urged.

Gaza in complete blackout 

Massive regions in the Strip are suffering from complete internet outage, while its largest communications service provider announced that it had shut down all operations across Gaza after Israeli war jets destroyed the company's remaining infrastructure.

"All routes connecting Gaza to the outside world were destroyed" by Israeli strikes, Al Jawwal said in a statement.

Meanwhile, Al Mayadeen's correspondent reported that today witnessed the most violent strikes on Gaza since October 7, confirming that attacks are being carried out through air, land, and sea. Our correspondent noted that Central Gaza is being targeted as well after attacks in the previous days were concentrated north of the Strip.

The Israeli occupation persists in its aggression on the Gaza Strip for the 21st consecutive day, with civilian homes being a frequent target. The number of martyrs in the Gaza Strip has now surpassed 7,300, while there are tens of thousands of wounded and missing individuals, as reported by the Gaza government's media office.

In just the past 24 hours, the Israeli occupation committed 41 massacres, resulting in 298 martyrs mostly in southern areas which the entity claimed were "safe". Since the first day of the aggression, Israelis committed a total of 772 massacres.
