The Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement Hamas has deplored international silence over the ongoing Israeli aggression on the besieged Gaza Strip. 

"The continuous international and regional silence over Israeli crimes and failure to act to hold their perpetrators to account are a disgrace to the whole world," Hamas spokesperson Fawzi Barhoum said. 

In a press statement on Sunday morning, Barhoum called for urgent action to put an end to the Israeli offensive on the Gaza Strip and all Israeli crimes and violations against the Palestinian people and their sacred sites.
