An Israeli strike on Khan Younis in Gaza has killed dozens of Palestinians, mostly children, Palestinian news agency Wafa has reported.

The attack on Saturday morning marked a dramatic escalation of airstrikes on southern Gaza by Israel.

The director of the Nasser hospital was quoted as saying that the facility had received 26 dead bodies and 23 people with serious injuries after a strike on a residential building in the city of Hamad.

For the past 42 days, the Israeli military has been pounding northern Gaza, telling residents to flee to south.

The attack on Khan Youni came just after Israel issued warnings to Palestinians in the southern city to relocate west, indicating an attack was imminent.

With the conflict entering its 43rd day, the death toll in Gaza has now surpassed 12,000 Palestinians, with the majority of those killed being women and children.

Israeli troops on Saturday ordered the evacuation of al-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City "in the next hour" over loudspeakers as troops combed the facility, news agencies reported.

Al-Shifa Hospital -- Gaza's biggest -- has become the focus of Israeli attacks in its ruthless invasion of the city.

The United Nations estimated 2,300 patients, staff and displaced Palestinians were sheltering at al-Shifa before Israeli troops moved in on Wednesday.

The health ministry in Gaza has announced dozens of deaths there as a result of power cuts caused by fuel shortages amid intense combat.

In the south of Damascus in Syria, the most famous place that has been suggested as the burial place of Hazrat Zainab (S), the daughter of Imam Ali (AS).

The tomb of Hazrat Zainab in Egypt and the Baqi cemetery in Madinah are two other places that are believed to be the burial place of Hazrat Zainab (PBUH).

This place in Syria is considered one of the Shiite shrines. The area where the shrine of Hazrat Zainab (pbuh) is located is called Al-Saidah Zainab town and is known as "Zainbiyah".

Hazrat Zainab's shrine has been renovated and developed throughout history. Since 2012, with the escalation of the crisis in Syria and the widespread presence of Takfiri terrorists in this country, this shrine was seriously attacked several times, as a result of which some parts of the shrine were damaged.

Following these actions, various groups went to Syria to defend the shrines of Ahl al-Bayt (AS). These groups, known as the defenders of the shrine, were able to prevent terrorist groups from entering the Zainabiyah area.

Hazrat Zainab (PBUH) nicknamed Zainab Kobra(PBUH) was born on the 5th of Jumadi al-Awal in the sixth year of the lunar calendar (in some sources, the year of her birth is mentioned as the fifth year of the lunar calendar) in the city of Medina; she is the third child of Amirul Momineen (AS) and Fatima Zahra (AS) after Imam Hassan (AS) and Imam Hussein (AS).

 It has been narrated that when Hazrat Zainab (PBUH) was born, Hazrat Zahra (PBUH) went to Hazrat Ali (PBUH) and told him to name her. Hazrat Ali (pbuh) said that I do not surpass the Prophet (pbuh) in this matter. When the matter was returned to the Prophet (PBUH) from his journey and the matter was told to him, the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said: I will not overtake the Almighty Lord in this matter. Name this child "Zainab", because we have written this in the “Loh Almahfooz”.

Zainab is a combination of "zain" and "ab" which means "father's adornment" and also Zainab means "beautiful and fragrant tree".

Hazrat Zainab married Abdullah bin Jafar. In some sources, four sons named: Ali, Aoun, Abbas, Muhammad and a daughter named Umm Kulthum are mentioned as the children of Hazrat Zainab (PBUH) and Abdullah. It is said that two of the martyrs of Karbala (Aun and Muhammad) were the children of Hazrat Zainab (PBUH).

Iran's foreign minister has strongly condemned the ongoing massacre of Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip by Israel as a blatant violation of international law.

Hossein Amir-Abdollahian made the remark in a phone call with his Hungarian counterpart, Péter Szijjártó, on Monday.

During the conversation, the two top diplomats discussed various aspects of bilateral relations as well as the latest developments in the West Asia region, especially the situation in Palestine and Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

Referring to deteriorating humanitarian conditions in Gaza as a result of Israel’s savage crimes, Iran's foreign minister said, “Through [indiscriminate] bombardment and massacre of people in the Gaza Strip, this [Israeli] regime has blatantly violated all [norms of] human rights and international law.”

Amir-Abdollahian also underlined the necessity of mounting pressure on Israel by the international community to put an immediate halt on the regime’s aggression against Gaza, establish a ceasefire across the territory, and pave the way for the dispatch of humanitarian aid.

Israel started its war on Gaza on October 7 after the territory’s resistance groups launched Operation al-Aqsa Storm in response to the regime’s intensified crimes against Palestinians.

Since then the Palestinian death toll from Israeli strikes has climbed to 11,240, including 4,630 children and 3,130 women. More than 28,000 people have been also injured in the regime’s military onslaught.

Israel has also blocked supply of water, food, electricity, and medicines to Gaza, plunging the coastal area into a humanitarian crisis. The regime has been defying global calls for a ceasefire as well.

On Sunday, the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) sounded a stern alarm about the humanitarian situation in the besieged Gaza Strip, saying, "The situation [in Gaza] is rapidly approaching a humanitarian disaster."

"An unbearable human tragedy is unfolding in front of our eyes. People call us day and night saying they are afraid to open their doors for fear of getting killed and pleading to help them reach safety," said William Schomburg, head of the ICRC's sub-delegation in Gaza.

Iranian President Ebrahim Raeisi addresses the joint emergency meeting of the Arab League and the OIC on the issue of Gaza in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, on November 11, 2023.

President Ebrahim Raeisi of Iran says the Israeli regime must be brought to justice in international courts over its genocide of the Palestinian people in the besieged Gaza Strip.

Tens of thousands of people have gathered in the capital of the United States to demand a ceasefire in Gaza as Washington continues to resist calls for an end to the war despite the mounting death toll.

The demonstrators in Washington, DC on Saturday directed their anger towards President Joe Biden, accusing him of enabling genocide against Palestinians.

“Biden, Biden, you can’t hide; we charge you with genocide,” the protesters chanted.

Protesters have also rallied in Indonesia and Pakistan calling for an end to Israeli strikes on Gaza.

According to Asr Iran news agency, the Secretary General of Lebanon's Hezbollah at the beginning of his speech expressed his condolences for the martyrdom of the Mujahideen of the Islamic Resistance, the Qassam Battalions, Saraya al-Quds and the civilians in Lebanon and Gaza. The important parts of Seyyed Hassan Nasrallah's speech are as follows:

If we want to seek a battle with complete legitimacy, there is no battle like the war with the "Zionists".

The Battle of Al-Aqsa Storm has spread on more than one front and field.

 Once again, I declare my allegiance to the goals of the martyrs of Hezbollah, al-Qassam, Quds Battalions and civilian martyrs.

I will briefly talk about the background of Al-Aqsa storm: the situation in recent years in Palestine was complicated with this government of idiots and savages who work in Israel.

Thousands of women and children are suffering in Israeli prisons. They also have a stupid minister who says that they should be tough.

In the past months, there have been unprecedented insults to Quds

Gaza has been under siege for 20 years

Settlements, threats to the West Bank and the arrests and martyrdom of many people in the West Bank are factors of the current operation.

No one in the world came to prevent the crimes of the Zionists; Neither international organizations nor other countries.

In Washington and European countries, they were making new plans to marginalize the Palestinian issue.

The issue of Palestine and what is happening in it was forgotten and it was at the last level of the world's concerns against the increase of the authoritarian and coercive policy of the enemy.

There had to be an incident to bring the issue of occupied Palestine back to the top of the world's issues and as the first issue, that's why the Al-Aqsa storm operation happened on the 7th of October.

Al-Aqsa storm operation was 100% a Palestinian decision and its implementation was completely Palestinian.

Complete secrecy was the factor that ensured the success of this glorious operation through the amazing element of surprise.

The designers of this operation even hid it from the Palestinian groups and resistance movements, and these groups were not upset by the secrecy in this regard.

Iran openly supports the resistance axis, but it had no involvement in the Al-Aqsa storm.

If we want to look for a battle with full legitimacy, there is no battle like the war with the Zionists.

There is no problem in fighting the Zionists on the moral and religious level.

Now the Zionists believe more than Hassan Nasrallah himself that Israel is weaker than a spider's house.

All American strategic warehouses were opened for Israel. They asked for new weapons and the Americans gave them. Is this a strong government? Can he stand on his feet?

Many settlers were killed in the crazy shooting of the Zionist army.

They come and say that we are doing a big operation; I am telling the world that this is not a big operation, it is the operation of a failed and cowardly regime.

Events in Gaza emphasize that the nature of the Zionist regime, which was planted in our region with the Balfour Declaration, is barbarism. The hypocrisy of the Americans is responsible for these crimes; Crimes that disgraced their humanitarian claims and democracy. They hold the lie of beheading children by Hamas and shout, but are silent about the killing of children in Gaza. This is the reality of the West, America and international regulations.

The attack on American bases by the Islamic resistance of Iraq is a right and wise thing to do. You will see more actions against America in the coming hours.

Know that this is a war between right and wrong and a war between humanity and brutality, and defending the people of Gaza is a human necessity. Anyone who writes and talks about the crimes in Gaza is like fighting.

The enemy previously announced in 2006 that his goal was to destroy Hezbollah, but this goal was never achieved. This time, the enemy's goal of destroying Hamas will not be achieved.

The Zionist enemy repeats the mistakes of 2006, when it set very lofty and unattainable goals for itself.

The events in Gaza show Israel's stupidity.

What is happening in Gaza shows the stupidity and helplessness of the Zionists.

From the early hours of Al-Aqsa storm, it was clear that this enemy is confused, fugitive and dumb.

It seems that Israeli governments have not learned from the history of fighting with Lebanese and Palestinian groups.

One of the biggest mistakes of Israelis is that they raise unattainable goals.

We have two goals: the end of the aggression against Gaza and the victory of Gaza.

The victory of Gaza is in favor of Egypt, Jordan and Syria. The victory of Gaza is in line with the national interests of Lebanon.

I ask the Arab and Muslim countries to start embargoing the goods and energy of Israel and its supporters.

Humanitarian groups have denounced Israel’s attack on Jabalia refugee camp, saying the deadly air raid should be a “wake-up call” to world leaders to secure a ceasefire in Gaza.

least 50 people were killed, and many others wounded.

Ramanshah- Political, Security and Social Deputy of Paveh Governorate said: The blood of the oppressed and innocent people of Palestine will be the basis for the destruction of Israel.

According to the reporter of Mehr, Farshad Sheikhi said in the meeting to clarify the false beliefs about Israel and Palestine and the distortions of the Jewish religion, which was held in the presence of the deputy director general of the provincial public libraries and the administrative council of the city, in the meeting hall of the governorate, during the 23 days.

Sheikhi stated: The liberating school of Islam and the ideals of Imam Khomeini (RA) and the path of Hajj Qasims continue, and soon the oppressed nations will see the repetition of history, and the Yazidis will come to understanding, and the Hussains will remain forever in history.

Ali Bagheri Kani made the remarks in a meeting with Deputy Secretary of the Russian Security Council Alexander Venediktov in Moscow on Friday as the Israeli regime continued its brutal attacks against the defenseless people in Gaza for the past 21 consecutive days.

The Russian security official, for his part, said the United States is the root cause of the ongoing worrisome situation in Palestine.

Venediktov added that the US seeks to cause crisis in the West Asia region by creating centers of tension. He said the US survival depends on obtaining material benefits from developing crisis, saying the White House rulers are not keen on improving regional stability and peace.

On October 7, the Palestinian Resistance group Hamas launched its biggest operation against the Israeli regime in years in a surprise attack, dubbed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, in response to the occupying regime’s intensified crimes against the Palestinian people.

Since then, the Israeli regime has pressed ahead with a relentless bombardment of Gaza. The death toll in Gaza since the start of the Israeli onslaught has reached 7,326, including 3,038 children and 1,726 women. Around 18,967 Palestinians have also been wounded.

Tel Aviv has also blocked water, food, and electricity to Gaza, plunging the besieged territory into a humanitarian crisis.

Venediktov officially invited Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council Ali Akbar Ahmadian to visit Moscow to discuss the latest mutual, regional, and international issues.

Bagheri Kani traveled to Moscow on Thursday at the invitation of his Russian counterpart to exchange views about the Israeli regime's war in Gaza.

He held talks with Mousa Abu Marzouk, a member of the Hamas political bureau, in Moscow.
