The Libyan Prime Minister, Abdul Hamid Dbeibah, renewed his rejection of the Israeli occupation forces’ aggression against the Gaza Strip and the policy of systematic killing and genocide by the Israelis.

Dbeibah announced in his cabinet meeting in Gharyan city the allocation of 50 million US dollars in humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza as “a sign of solidarity and duty.”

This came after the Head of the Presidential Council, Mohammed Menfi, had addressed the Prime Minister, asking for the acceleration of the provision of humanitarian support for the Palestinian people.

Menfi said that the Palestinian Authority’s President Mahmoud Abbas had sent him an invitation, urging him to quickly support international organizations such as UNRWA and the Red Crescent via Rafah crossing between Gaza and Egypt, and to support the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank.

Israel has launched relentless air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip since a cross-border attack by the Palestinian resistance group Hamas on October 07. At least 10,569 Palestinians have been killed, including 4,324 children and 2,823 women.
