Venezuela's Foreign Minister Yvan Gil Pinto stressed in a post on X that what is happening in Gaza is a Nazi-style genocide, adding that “the pictures and testimonies arriving on a daily basis from the Gaza Strip show the war crimes committed by Israel.”

Gil continued, "This barbarism must stop immediately, and the perpetrators of these crimes must be prosecuted."

Lo que está ocurriendo en Gaza es una operación de exterminio al estilo Nazi. Las imágenes y testimonios, que se reciben todos los días, dan cuenta de los crímenes de guerra que comete el Estado de Israel. ¡La barbarie debe detenerse de inmediato y se deben juzgar tales crímenes!

Earlier this week, Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro stated that "Israel's" bombing of mosques, hospitals, churches, and inhabited residential buildings compare to the practices of the Nazi fascist Adolf Hitler. 

"The world stood up for Palestine," Maduro emphasized, in reference to popular demonstrations in support of Gaza and the Palestinian cause all over the world.

The Venezuelan President pointed to massive crowds that took to the streets in New York, Paris, Madrid, Jakarta, Istanbul, and Venezuela's Caracas. Maduro said that free people all across the globe united their voices and condemned the genocide of the Palestinian people.

Maduro described the recent protest in the Spanish capital as "the largest protest Madrid has witnessed in 40 years," where protestors declared, "This is not a war; it is a direct genocide by the Zionists."

These statements from the Venezuelan President come as the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip enters its 29th day. The number of martyrs has exceeded 9,000, with hundreds of victims still stuck under the rubble. "Israel" has intensified its bombing of the Gaza Strip, leaving "no safe zone" where civilians could seek refuge. 

Thousands march in Caracas

Earlier on October 27, thousands of people in Caracas demonstrated in support of the Palestinian people, rejecting the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip.

"This [the indiscriminate bombing of Gaza] has awakened worldwide solidarity with the struggle of the Palestinian people," Diosdado Cabello, vice president of the United Socialist Party of Venezuela said at the protest.

Cabello stressed that Palestine "will be free", adding that the occupied territories "will be returned and the rule of law will prevail in the world."

The official emphasized Venezuela's position on the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip saying, "We demand an immediate end to violence," in reference to the genocidal actions carried out by Israeli occupation forces.
