Press Release
1000 Days Have Passed Since the Genocidal War in Gaza
The Arenas of Jihad and Heroism Still Call Upon the Ummah and its Armies
(Translated)

The Government Media Office in Gaza published alarming statistics and facts about the humanitarian, living, and service conditions, and the devastation inflicted on the Gaza Strip after 1000 days of the genocide perpetrated by the Jewish entity since October 7th, 2013. More than 21,500 children have been martyred, including 1022 infants, and the total number of martyrs has risen to 73,066. The number of wounded has reached 173,514 including more than 44,500 children, while approximately 9500 people remain missing, believed to be buried under the rubble of destroyed buildings. The office indicated that more than 90% of the buildings in the Gaza Strip have been destroyed. The United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) reported that more than 11,000 children have suffered life-altering injuries, including up to 4000 amputations, many of which were performed under extremely difficult medical conditions.

Government media office data also showed that 460 people died due to malnutrition, including 164 children, in addition to the death of 28 displaced people, most of them children, as a result of low temperatures inside displacement camps. According to reports, more than 2700 families were completely wiped out, while only one person remained alive out of 6020 families. The number of orphans rose to more than 58800, including 2700 children who lost both parents, while the number of widows reached 26,370 women.

A thousand days of genocide and atrocities have left behind these horrific figures and statistics, standing as a testament to the brutality of the Jews, from which no human being, tree, or stone was spared, not even fetuses in their mothers' wombs. They rained down upon them a quantity of bombs and explosives equivalent to two nuclear bombs, destroying every aspect of life: homes, infrastructure, schools, universities, hospitals, health centers, mosques, shelters, and even refugee tents.

A thousand days of genocide and atrocities have also borne witness to the hypocrisy and complicity of the international system and its institutions, foremost among them America, which provided the criminal entity with the means of power and survival, supplying it with deadly weapons and funds, thus becoming a partner in this genocide.

A thousand days of massacres bear witness to the treachery, conspiracy, and depravity of the rulers of the Muslims, especially of neighboring countries that did nothing to stop this genocide. Even worse, they acted as the Iron Dome, protecting the entity, opening their airspace to it so it could commit its crimes. They supplied it with aid in the form of food, fuel, and clothing, while simultaneously besieging the people of Gaza and guarding the borders of the usurping entity.

For a thousand days, the actions of the Ummah have fallen short of the gravity of the situation. It is lulled into complacency by empty words and solutions that neither bring justice to the oppressed nor deter the enemy; they divert attention from the need to head towards the rulers' palaces and topple their thrones, and from the need to head to the barracks to remind the military of their duty to dismantle the borders and eliminate the Jewish entity.

A thousand days have passed, and the armies of the Ummah, which possess the resources, equipment, and supplies that enable them to eliminate the Jewish entity in an hour of a day, like the armies of Egypt and Turkey, have not been moved by the massacres and the pure blood that was shed, nor by the cries for help that were made, nor by the moans of the sick and wounded, nor by the gurgling of the stomachs of their starving brothers. Has the time not yet come for them to shake off the dust of humiliation and disgrace, and to break free from obedience to the creation to the obedience of the Creator, and to shake off the shame and disgrace of this world and the Hereafter?!

O Muslims: He who thinks that the war on Gaza has ended, that innocent blood has been spared, that loss and suffering have ceased, that famine has vanished forever, and that the Jewish entity has adhered to any agreement or truce is deluded. Even if Gaza is absent or removed from our screens, and even if the clamor of stadiums drowns out the sounds of bombardment and the cries of pain and loss, the genocidal war, siege, and starvation continue. Trump and his so-called "Peace Council" continue to plot and scheme against the people of Gaza.

O Muslim Ummah and its armies: Show Allah your true strength! The arenas of true jihad and heroism are calling you, not the arenas of stadiums and their false heroism!

[انْفِرُوا خِفَافاً وَثِقَالاً وَجَاهِدُوا بِأَمْوَالِكُمْ وَأَنْفُسِكُمْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللَّهِ ذَلِكُمْ خَيْرٌ لَكُمْ إِنْ كُنْتُمْ تَعْلَمُونَ]

“˹O believers!˺ March forth whether it is easy or difficult for you, and strive with your wealth and your lives in the cause of Allah. That is best for you, if only you knew” [At-Tawbah: 41]
