The Zionist occupation commits the worst and most heinous massacres, and the most criminal, in the largest genocide in history, in front of a world that has decided not to see. The occupation did not suffice in waging war by air, sea, and land, using fighter jets, drones, warships, and military boats, artillery, and 'Merkava' tanks. It resorted to the use of internationally prohibited weapons. The terrorist occupation employed white phosphorus bombs and the Dime weapon, a type of heavy metal explosive that causes deep burns and internal injuries leading to severe bleeding and amputation of the victim's limbs. The occupation does not differentiate between men, women, children, and the elderly; every Palestinian Arab in Gaza is a target for the occupation.

We witnessed thousands of children pleading for the opening of crossings to receive medical treatment, but the crossings were closed by the occupation in their faces. The Palestinian Arab was not only a victim but a part of this aggression. Their wounds festered, their limbs were amputated using kitchen knives, and most of them were martyred while waiting for the world to see them and hear their voices.

What makes these weapons internationally prohibited?

According to the Convention on Certain Conventional Weapons (CCW), an agreement prohibiting or restricting the use of certain conventional weapons that may be deemed excessively injurious or have indiscriminate effects. The first protocol of the agreement states that weapons causing injuries with non-detectable fragments are prohibited. As for the third protocol, incendiary weapons are prohibited. It is worth noting that "Israel" signed the agreement in 1980, making it bound by it. According to doctors' findings, it has been confirmed that the particles of the Dime weapon cannot be detected in X-rays, rendering it internationally prohibited according to the protocols of the agreement.

In the face of the hypocritical world and its deceitful laws, the terrorist occupation uses the most atrocious methods to kill the Palestinian people in Gaza and destroy their homes and dreams.
