US-Israel Gaza genocide
Nearly six months into the Israeli genocidal war on Gaza, the regime’s relentless bombardment and shelling continue to claim innocent lives in the besieged Palestinian territory. Several areas, including Jabalia in the north and Rafah in the south have come under fresh aerial strikes. At least nine people were killed in Israeli shelling as aid was being distributed in Gaza City. The Gaza health ministry says 114 Palestinians lost their lives in Israeli strikes in a matter of 24 hours. The death toll from the US-backed genocide in Gaza since October the 7 has now surpassed 32,100, most of them women and children. 7,000 more are unaccounted for and feared to be dead under the rubble of their homes. Over 74,400 Gazans have also been injured.
Terror attack in Russia
The death toll from a terror attack at a concert hall outside the Russian capital Moscow rises to 143. Scores of people were also injured in the shooting rampage. The attackers dressed in camouflaged outfits entered the Crocus City Hall on Friday and opened fire there. The Daesh terror group claimed responsibility but authorities in Moscow have dismissed the assertion, emphasizing that the investigation is still underway to ascertain the culprits. The Federal Security Service has reported the detention of 11 suspects. Russian President Vladimir Putin says the four people directly involved in the attack were trying to flee to Ukraine when they were detained.
Putin pledges punishment
Russian President Vladimir Putin described the attack at a concert hall outside Moscow as a barbaric terrorist act and announced a day of national mourning. He said some people on the Ukrainian side had prepared to let the suspects cross the border from Russia. Ukraine has denied any involvement in the attack. The massacre has been slammed by countries across the globe. The UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres condemned the attack in the “strongest possible terms” while the Security Council underlined the need to hold accountable those responsible for the deadly incident. Iran's President Ebrahim Raeisi also censured the attack and extended his condolences to the families of the victims.
