Qalibaf: Knesset speaker ‘disgrace to humanity’ for denying Gaza starvation
Iranian Parliament Speaker Mohammad Baqer Qalibaf has blasted the Israeli Knesset speaker as a “disgrace to humanity” for denying the starvation of Gaza’s children.
“Criminal Knesset speaker claims the starvation of Gaza’s children is “fake news”. Shame on you!” Qalibaf wrote on his X account on Thursday.
Qalibaf noted that the world is “witnessing the greatest #Genocide in history” at the hands of the Israeli regime.

Citing four UN reports confirming the genocide and famine in Gaza, Qalibaf exposed the Israeli official’s lies, saying “Are UN experts, UNICEF and aid organizations lying, while only you tell the truth? You are a disgrace to humanity.”
On Tuesday, addressing the Sixth World Conference of Speakers of Parliament in Geneva, Qalibaf called the Israeli regime the “Nazis of the 21st century,” displaying images of starving Palestinian children.
In response, the Knesset speaker furiously rejected child starvation in Gaza, ignoring UN evidence while lashing out at The New York Times publishing one of the harrowing images.
The overall death count resulting from starvation and malnutrition in Gaza has currently reached 155, including 89 children, and it is projected to escalate rapidly as the siege and the closure of crossings persist.
On Tuesday, the World Food Programme, UNICEF, and the Food and Agriculture Organization warned that "time was running out" and Gaza stood "on the brink of a full-scale famine."
More than 60,200 Palestinians have been killed, mostly women and children, and another 146,000 individuals injured in the brutal Israeli onslaught on Gaza since October 7, 2023.
