US Congress Member Urges Immediate Halt to Genocide in Gaza

According to the English section of webangah News Agency, citing​ Al Jazeera via Mehr News Agency, Alexandria ‌Ocasio-Cortez, a Democratic member of⁤ the U.S. ‍Congress, ⁣has demanded‍ an immediate halt⁤ to the genocide in Gaza.

She stated: “Stop the genocide in Gaza promptly.”

The Democratic congresswoman added that one in five children ‌in Gaza‌ suffers from ⁢imposed starvation.

It is worth noting that Ocasio-Cortez adn ​other progressive members of ​Congress have faced negative reactions for comparing⁢ Israeli⁤ actions against Palestinians to South Africa’s apartheid regime.
