In his profile on the social network X, the Cuban foreign minister said that those who speak of a plan to “clean” Gaza territory should stop the delivery of weapons to Israel and the genocide, and support a just and lasting peace that recognizes an independent Palestinian state within the pre-1967 borders.
Today, on the occasion of the annual International Day of Commemoration in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust, we reiterate Cuba’s commitment to continue fighting against any manifestation of discrimination, including anti-Semitism, racism, xenophobia, and religious intolerance, Rodriguez wrote.
The United States, a key ally of Israel and a major supplier of arms and other military aid to that regime, lifted the Biden-era suspension on the shipment of 2,000-pound bombs the day before, despite international calls to stop the massacre and allow humanitarian access to Gaza.
The Israeli aggression against Palestine, which began on October 7, 2023, has resulted in the death of more than 47,000 people, mostly women and children, hundreds of thousands of wounded, a severe humanitarian crisis, and the displacement of more than 90 percent of the population.
