US Congressman: Israel is doing ethnic cleansing.
A Democratic representative from the American state of Minnesota, protesting the actions of the Zionist regime in Gaza, condemned the actions of this regime for ethnic cleansing in Gaza.
“Ilhan Omar”, the Democratic representative of Minnesota, USA, warned about the actions of the Zionist regime to ethnically cleanse the Palestinians in Gaza and stated that the actions of this regime to evacuate the Palestinians from the north of Gaza within 24 hours is a form of “ethnic cleansing” and in his opinion He said this action could create an “indescribable humanitarian crisis”.
Since Israel’s declaration of war against Hamas, the regime has carried out its deadliest airstrikes in history in Gaza. Ilhan Omar’s statements were made after Axios news agency published a post and wrote: “Israel has told the United Nations that it will evacuate the north of the Gaza Strip within 24 hours.”
Omar wrote on his personal page on X social network: The act of mass deportation of more than one million people in one day is ethnic cleansing. He also pointed out that according to the United Nations, this action is impossible and will have very devastating human consequences.
Criticizing the brutal policies of the Zionist regime against the Palestinians in Gaza, he wrote: We must stop ignoring the lives of thousands of Palestinians who have died and millions of Palestinians who are in danger, and use all our diplomatic tools to prevent this.
The United Nations has defined ethnic cleansing as: “a purposeful policy designed by one ethnic and religious group to remove, by violence and terror, the civilian population of another ethnic and religious group from specific geographic areas.”
In another post, Omar discussed why he believes the 24-hour evacuation of Palestinians from Gaza is impossible and pointed out that this would cause indescribable humanitarian crises.
He wrote: First, many Palestinians are injured, displaced, or taking care of their sick, injured, children, or elderly relatives, and they simply cannot walk and leave Gaza.
Omar’s other statements criticized the policies of the Prime Minister of the Zionist regime to completely cut off the supply of fuel, food, electricity, and medicine to Gaza, and he wrote about this: “With cutting off communications and electricity from Israel, this action will not be implemented.”
However because the roads were bombed and many cars ran out of fuel, and this issue made it impossible to leave Gaza.
In another post, he wrote: Southern Gaza cannot accommodate another 1 million and 100 thousand people, and there is no announcement to “stop the attacks” to support the residents during the evacuation of northern Gaza.
In the end, Ilhan Omar, after presenting his reasons for the impossibility of the forced migration of Palestinians from northern Gaza under the pressure of the Zionist regime, said: Mass deportation of more than one million civilians is a severe violation of international laws and is not justified under any circumstances. Our human commonality demands to stop this process.
