One thousand days into the Zionist entity’s Genocide against the Palestinian people
One thousand days into the Zionist entity’s Genocide against the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip—and despite a ‘’ceasefire’’ agreement that took effect on October 10 of last year—residents living in cramped coastal areas to the west of Gaza, devoid of the basic necessities of life, have seen no improvement in their living conditions. On the contrary, the humanitarian crises spawned by the Genocide persist and worsen by the day, while Zionist occupation forces continue their systematic, daily killings, the genocide continues destroying many lives.
The scale of the tragedy is starkly visible across the streets, alleys, and lands of Gaza’s villages, towns, and cities. Gaza’s infrastructure and agricultural lands have been crushed; the machinery of genocide has left behind thousands of tons of rubble, the result of the near-total destruction—exceeding 90%—of residential areas, as well as agricultural, industrial, environmental, and all vital facilities. Vast areas remain blanketed in rubble, bearing witness to the immense devastation caused by airstrikes, land- and sea boats-based artillery shelling, accompanied by ground invasions—operations in which Zionist occupation forces deliberately and comprehensively destroy neighbourhoods in cities, towns, and villages alike. Zionist occupation forces have expanded their control over territory in the Gaza Strip during the current ‘’ ceasefire’’, increasing their occupation of land from 53% at the start of the ‘’ceasefire’’ to approximately 70% of total area of the Gaza Strip and today controls 80% of the Gaza Strip.
Meanwhile, over two million citizens are living in cramped, overcrowded areas—amidst the rubble of homes or within dangerous structures escaped the total destruction—with more than half the population residing in makeshift plastic displacement tents. The survivors complain of a lack of resources and inadequate services, as Zionist occupation authorities deliberately block the entry of sufficient food and medical aid—a fact confirmed by UN relief agencies and reports from official and human rights bodies. Simultaneously, occupation forces consistently target medical personnel, aid workers, and journalists.
This ongoing Genocide has been engineered to continuously kill the Palestinian people. Infectious diseases are spreading among the survivors, exacerbated by the occupation forces preventing Palestinians from disposing of waste by barring access to designated landfills; hundreds of tons of waste now surround the areas where survivors are sheltering. Residents suffer from thirst due to a lack of drinking water and a severe general water shortage—part of the Zionist strategy to accelerate the killing.
The few remaining functional hospital departments in Gaza, are operating at minimal capacity due to acute shortages of medicines, fuel, equipment, and medical devices, prompting medical authorities to warn of grave risks to the lives of residents, particularly children and the elderly.
1,000-Day Genocide Statistic
In a comprehensive statistical overview of the impact of the Genocide after 1,000 days, the Palestinian Government Media Office reported that the 2.4 million Palestinians in the Gaza Strip are continuously subjected to extermination, starvation, and ethnic cleansing. The total destruction caused by Zionist occupation forces across the Gaza Strip has reached 90%, while the occupation now controls 80% of the territory. Since the war began, 223,000 tons of explosives have been dropped on Gaza. The Media Office stated that the death toll has risen to 73,066, with 9,500 people missing—including those whose bodies remain under the rubble. The total casualty figures include 21,500 children, 12,500 women, and 262 journalists, together with 173,514 injured individuals.
A detailed report outlined the overall damage inflicted on the Gaza Strip by Genocide, estimating initial losses at $80 billion. The report held the Zionist occupation and its supporting nations responsible for the profound humanitarian catastrophe ravaging the Gaza Strip right now, calling on the international community to exert real pressure to halt the ongoing genocide, open crossings, facilitate the entry of aid, and secure the withdrawal of the Zionist occupation army from the Gaza Strip.
The Zionist entity is waging genocide against the newborns, children, and women of Gaza, accelerating its war of ethnic extermination in the territory.
Only 2,004 births were recorded in Gaza during April 2026.
This represents a 67% decline in births compared to November 2025, when 6,076 births were recorded.
5,210 births in January 2026, followed by 3,433 in February, 3,233 in March, and 2,004 in April.
Only 1,701 births were recorded during May 2026.
57,000 births in 2022, dropping to 38,000 in 2024.
921 miscarriages during April 2026 alone.
%46 of all pregnancies ended in miscarriage during the same period.
A 225% increase in miscarriage rates compared to pre-war levels.
The destruction of the healthcare system and the denial of medicine, food, and care have intensified the risks associated with pregnancy and childbirth.
The unfolding situation represents a systematic pattern of reproductive violence constituting acts of genocide.

Zionist Killing Policies Aimed at Displacing Palestinians
The Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR) confirms that Zionist occupation forces continue to escalate its mass killing crimes against Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip. This is occurring alongside the systematic destruction of remaining residential neighbourhoods and civilian infrastructure, as well as repeated shelling of displaced persons’ tents and temporary shelters—actions that kill, injure, and repeatedly displace civilians amidst a total absence of safe havens within the Strip.
The Palestinian Centre for Human Rights (PCHR) asserts that these combined policies indicate that the Zionist entity is not merely persisting in acts of genocide but is also entrenching a coercive environment that compels the Palestinian population to leave—driven by systematic destruction, starvation, forced displacement, and the dismantling of the foundations of civilian life.
For their part, Palestinian resistance factions—marking 1,000 days of the Zionist entity’s genocidal war backed by the US administration, Western countries, and Western lobbies—described the situation as a “glaring embodiment of organized state terrorism, revealing the true face of Zionist colonialism.” They characterized it as “1,000 days of Genocide and confrontation between the Zionist-American-Western colonial apparatus—heavily armed with every variety of US and Western-made weaponry—and our people, who are defenceless but armed with a strong will to live and resist genocide.”
The Palestinian resistance factions declared their rejection of any foreign guardianship over the Palestinian people and affirmed that the administration of the Gaza Strip is an “internal matter.” They called upon the administrative committee tasked with managing Gaza to promptly enter the Gaza Strip and assume its duties. Furthermore, they urged the launch of a comprehensive national dialogue to establish a genuine political partnership, formulate a unified national strategy, address major national issues, put the Palestinian house in order, and rebuild national institutions—including the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO)—to ensure they are inclusive of all Palestinians in the face of the immense challenges confronting the Palestinian cause. Finally, they demanded a decisive and influential Arab and Islamic stance to secure a comprehensive and total cessation of the Genocide, urging the full utilization of all available Arab and Islamic leverage.

Over 43 million join funeral ceremonies for Martyr Leader Imam Ali Khamenei in Iran, Iraq

Tens of millions of Iranians and devotees from across the world turned the funeral ceremonies for the martyred Leader of the Islamic Revolution Ayatollah Seyyed Ali Khamenei, into the largest procession the world has ever witnessed, according to a report.
The six-day grand farewell and burial rites for the revered Leader were held across five cities — Tehran, Qom, Najaf, Karbala, and Mashhad — drawing massive, passionate crowds that defied all previous records, the Fars News Agency reported.
The ceremonies included three days in Tehran, two days of public mourning at the Grand Mosalla and one day of the main funeral procession, with each of the other cities hosting a full day of tributes. Many mourners traveled between cities, multiplying the scale of participation and creating a continuous wave of devotion.
Official estimates, compiled from multiple independent field and government sources, confirm that between 41 and 43 million people took part in the historic events.
These figures are based on a rigorous combination of data including public transport passenger records to and from ceremony sites, active mobile phone signals in key areas such as the Mosalla and main procession routes, average individual attendance duration of approximately two and a half hours, detailed crowd density calculations along Tehran’s procession paths, physical area measurements from Jamkaran Mosque to the Holy Shrine in Qom, and the route from the airport to the Imam Reza Holy Shrine in Mashhad.
The endless sea of mourners, who had gathered since early morning, accompanied the vehicle carrying the blessed bodies, transforming the streets of Mashhad into a scene of unparalleled grandeur and devotion.
The sheer scale of the gathering defied description. From the moment the funeral vehicle entered Imam Reza Street, it was completely surrounded by waves of mourners who had traveled from every corner of Iran, all united in grief and determination.
Their tear-streaked faces and fervent chants filled the air, creating an atmosphere that observers described as one of the most remarkable displays of national unity in recent history.
Iraqi authorities, through the Prime Minister’s Office, separately verified the presence of around 10 million mourners in Najaf and Karbala, providing an important independent pillar for the overall calculation.
Even when applying the most conservative methodologies, Iranian officials and relevant authorities emphasize that this monumental event has surpassed every comparable gathering of the past century.
It stands without doubt as the single largest funeral procession in recorded history, a powerful and everlasting testament to the deep love and unwavering allegiance of the Iranian people and the broader Islamic Ummah for their martyred Leader.
The Leader and members of his family were martyred in a terrorist attack on February 28, carried out by the United States and the Zionist regime against the leader’s residence.
Among those martyred were new Leader Ayatollah Seyyed Mojtaba Khamenei’s wife, the late leader’s son-in-law; a daughter of the late leader and his 14-month-old granddaughter.
The funeral ceremonies began last Friday, with tributes from political officials from over 45 countries and scholars from more than 90 nations. This was followed by farewell ceremonies at Tehran’s Mosalla over the weekend, where millions paid their respects.
