Following the deadly bombardment of Al-Ahli Hospital in the besieged Gaza strip, there remains no space and it was almost impossible to talk to the leaders of the Zionist regime and their supporters except with the logic of power and force.
In such circumstances, can we expect that this bitter incident will wake up the sleeping consciences of the world powers and the supporters of the Zionist regime?
Seyyed Hassan Khomeini issued a message of condolence to denounce the Israeli massacre against Palestinians.
In the name of God the Almighty,
We belong to Allah and to Him we will return
What happened tonight in Gaza marks the death of humanity in the soul and mind of those who have sided with the infamous and notorious Zionist regime for their own interests.
If the crime of the hospital fails to awaken the sleeping conscience of the rulers of the United States and its allies across Europe and their media, then they should be describes as "the dead of the world of humanity".
What happened was the end of the legitimacy of the cowardly politics of some Arab rulers, and above all, it showed Muslims and free people that the brutal Israeli regime does not have the least moral legitimacy. This tragedy showed that you cannot talk to the leaders of this regime and their supporters except with the logic of power and force.
According to which human logic is it permissible to kill defenseless children and women who took refuge in a hospital? Bombing civilians can be justified by what criteria?
But I really don't know if it is possible to hope that this tragic incident will wake up sleeping consciences? The Palestinian nation will add this painful pain to its historical oppression and will be closer to its bright future, God willing.

It is worthy to mention that the health ministry in the Gaza Strip says hundreds of victims are trapped under the rubble of the Ahli Arab Hospital after up to 500 people were killed in Israeli airstrikes on Tuesday.
“The massacre at the Ahli Arab Hospital is unprecedented in our history. While we’ve witnessed tragedies in past wars and days, but what took place tonight is tantamount to genocide,” spokesman Mahmoud Basal said.
The media office of Hamas described the attack as a "war crime."
Israel launched the war on Gaza on October 7 after the Palestinian Hamas resistance group waged a surprise attack, dubbed Operation Al-Aqsa Storm, against the occupying entity.
So far, 3,500 Palestinians have been killed in Israeli air raids, including more than 1,000 children and 1,000 women.
