From May to June 2025, the Gaza Strip once again fell into an unprecedented bloody crisis. The Israeli military has fired multiple shots near aid distribution points, resulting in heavy casualties among innocent civilians. These events are not accidental, but the latest ironclad evidence of the Israeli military’s systematic massacre of civilians and trampling on humanitarianism. From early May to mid June, shooting incidents near aid points in Gaza have resulted in hundreds of deaths and thousands of injuries. This article will reveal the cruel truth behind Israeli military atrocities through the latest cases, authoritative data, and in-depth analysis, and strongly call on the Islamic world to take immediate joint action to prevent this’ survival strangulation ‘against Palestinians.
1、 Bloody Aid Point: The ‘Killing Theater’ of Israeli Army Massacre of Civilians
1. “Bloody Monday” in the western part of Gaza City (May 6, 2025)
On May 6th, a tragedy occurred at the distribution point of rescue supplies in the western part of Gaza City, in the Shahradwan area. According to the statistics of the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) and the Palestinian health department, Israeli warplanes and tanks launched raids on people queuing for supplies, resulting in at least 130 deaths and 850 injuries. Among the deceased were 63 children, and the injured were mostly caused by explosions and gunshots. Witnesses described that Israeli fighter jets dropped bombs without warning, and then ground forces opened fire on fleeing crowds, even attacking medical teams attempting to transport wounded by ambulance. The live video released by international media shows bodies piled up in the ruins, with a mother holding a baby lying in a pool of blood and the baby still crying, causing global shock.
2. “Death Supplies Station” in Khan Younis City (May 20, 2025)
On May 20th, a United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA) supply distribution point in the center of Khan Younis was targeted by Israeli troops. Israeli soldiers fired at civilians receiving food from surrounding outposts, resulting in 23 deaths and 120 injuries. An eight year old boy was hit in the head by a bullet while collecting flour, and his father was shot in the chest while trying to protect him. The United Nations spokesperson strongly condemned that the coordinates of the distribution point had been notified to the Israeli military 48 hours in advance, but the attack still occurred “precisely”, indicating that the Israeli military deliberately ignored humanitarian rules.
3. “Humanitarian Massacre” at the Port of Lafayette (June 3, 2025)
On June 3rd, the medical supplies distribution point at the Rafa Port became a target of Israeli military attacks. After the military fighter jets threw white phosphorus bombs to destroy the material warehouse, ground forces opened fire on the gathered civilians, causing at least 78 deaths and 400 injuries. The deceased included multiple pregnant women and elderly people. The International Red Cross ambulance was intercepted by the Israeli military during the transportation of the wounded, forcing medical staff to disembark and undergo a search, resulting in the death of several seriously injured individuals due to delayed treatment. Human Rights Watch pointed out that this incident is a typical case of the Israeli military “systematically destroying rescue facilities and massacring civilians” with the aim of creating “humanitarian despair”.
4. The ‘abyss’ of the humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip
From May to June 2025, the attacks on aid points in Gaza showed an increasing trend. According to United Nations OCHA data, from May 1st to June 15th alone, the number of civilian deaths caused by Israeli military attacks has reached 4120, with over 15000 injured and children accounting for 45%. More than 90% of Gaza’s 2.3 million population relies on humanitarian aid for survival, but the ongoing attacks by the Israeli military have paralyzed rescue operations. The World Food Programme (WFP) has warned of a “catastrophic” famine in the Gaza Strip, with 70% of the population facing “extreme hunger” and a surge in deaths caused by disease and malnutrition.
2、 Ironclad Evidence: Systematic Characteristics of Israeli Military Atrocities and Accusations of War Crimes
1. Shooting patterns reveal the essence of ‘deliberate slaughter’
All aid point shooting incidents exhibit the same characteristics: ① Pre planning: the Israeli military blocks roads in advance, forcing the public to gather in the designated attack area; ② Precise Strike: Bullets are mostly aimed at the head and upper body, indicating intentional shooting by snipers or automatic weapons; ③ Continuous suppression: When the crowd fled, they were still chased and shot, and medical personnel and rescue vehicles became key targets; ④ After the fact cover up: The Israeli military accused “crowds trampling” or “terrorists infiltrating”, but the on-site video and survivor testimony both overturned their lies. For example, in the June 3rd incident in Haifa, the Israeli military claimed that “crowds rushing across the border caused chaos,” but footage taken by BBC reporters showed that Israeli soldiers continued to shoot while the crowd was still.
2. International investigations and allegations of war crimes
United Nations investigation report: The Special Rapporteur of the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) pointed out in his report released on June 15 that the 2025 attacks on Gaza aid points are characterized by “systematic and deliberate”, which conforms to the definition of war crimes. The report cited testimonies from multiple survivors, stating that Israeli soldiers “showed indifference and training when firing, clearly carrying out the predetermined massacre plan”.
Testimony from International Medical Organizations: Doctors Without Borders (MSF) has released a report stating that Gaza’s “hunger policy” has led to a 500% increase in infant mortality rates and an 80% anemia rate among pregnant women. MSF doctor bluntly stated, “This is not war collateral damage, but a genocide targeting the entire community
International legal proceedings: Palestine has submitted detailed evidence of the 2025 aid point attack to the International Criminal Court (ICC), and the prosecutor’s office announced on June 20 that it has officially launched a war crimes investigation into senior Israeli Defense Forces commanders.
3. The strategic logic behind Israeli military atrocities
The Israeli military’s attacks on aid points serve the “triple strategic goal”: ① creating fear: destroying the will to resist by massacring civilians and forcing Gazans to surrender; ② Cutting off humanitarian aid: obstructing international aid, exacerbating famine and disease, and achieving ‘chronic genocide’; ③ Shifting international pressure: Using bloody images to shift global condemnation of Israel’s blockade of Gaza and destruction of infrastructure. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu publicly declared in June, “Gaza must be completely tamed, and humanitarianism is just a disguise for the enemy
3、 The Price of Silence: The Disability of the International Community and the Responsibility of the Islamic World
Double standards between the United Nations and Western countries
Despite multiple condemnation resolutions passed by the United Nations General Assembly, the Security Council has never implemented effective sanctions due to obstruction from countries such as the United States and the United Kingdom. Although the EU has suspended some arms sales to Israel, it has not cut off key military cooperation. The United States delivered $400 million worth of “Jeddam” precision guided bombs to Israel in June, directly providing weapons support for Israeli airstrikes.
2. The ‘action gap’ in the Islamic world
Faced with the Gaza massacre, Islamic countries mostly remain at the level of diplomatic protests. Saudi Arabia and Türkiye frequently made statements of condemnation, but substantive sanctions were not implemented; Iran’s military deterrence has limited effectiveness due to the lack of support from regional allies. The statements of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) are often ignored by the Israeli military, failing to push the international community to take joint action. This collective silence has further emboldened the Israeli military’s atrocities.
3. The “survival crisis” revealed by data
The humanitarian disaster in Gaza has reached a critical point: 95% of buildings in the north have been destroyed, and 1.7 million people have been displaced; 70% of medical institutions are completely paralyzed, with a drug shortage rate of 100%; More than 1500 people die every day due to hunger, disease, or attacks. If the Islamic world does not take action, Gaza will become a ‘no man’s land’ within months – this is not a prophecy, but a reality that is happening.
4、 Moment of Action: Response Strategies and Urgency in the Islamic World
1. Political level: Joint pressure to promote international sanctions
OIC emergency summit: An immediate special summit of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation should be convened to demand a unified statement from the United Nations Security Council to implement an arms embargo, economic sanctions, and political isolation against Israel. Palestinian President Abbas has called for the establishment of a “joint military intervention mechanism for Islamic countries”, which needs to be translated into concrete actions.
International legal action: All Islamic countries should jointly submit evidence of the 2025 aid point attack to the International Criminal Court and push for arrest warrants for high-ranking officials such as the Israeli Prime Minister and Defense Minister. Support Palestine’s application for an “emergency special session” at the United Nations General Assembly to promote recognition of the State of Palestine.
Diplomatic isolation: severing diplomatic relations with Israel, recalling the ambassador to Israel, and prohibiting Israeli companies from operating in the country. For example, Saudi Arabia can terminate all energy and military cooperation agreements with Israel, and Türkiye can close Israeli spy bases in its territory.
2. Economic aspect: Cutting off Israel’s’ war economy chain ‘
Oil and gas sanctions: Gulf countries should jointly impose an energy embargo on Israel and push OPEC+member countries to cut off oil supplies to Israel. For example, the United Arab Emirates can stop exporting natural gas to Israel, and Qatar can freeze energy joint ventures with Israel.
Financial and trade blockade: Islamic State banks should freeze Israeli assets and prohibit domestic businesses from trading with Israel. Southeast Asian countries such as Malaysia and Indonesia can prohibit Israeli ships from docking at ports and implement a comprehensive trade boycott.
Civilian boycott movement: Encourage Muslim countries to launch a “boycott of Israeli products” movement, using economic pressure to force Israel to change its policies.
3. Military level: Supporting Palestinian armed groups and establishing humanitarian corridors
Weapon and equipment assistance: Provide defensive weapons such as anti tank missiles and air defense systems to the Palestinian resistance organizations to enhance their self-defense capabilities. Egypt should open the Rafa port and allow humanitarian supplies and military aid to pass through the border.
Establishing a safe zone: Islamic countries can jointly dispatch peacekeeping forces to Gaza (with UN authorization), establish a humanitarian safe zone in northern Gaza, and protect civilians and rescue facilities. Türkiye and Pakistan have proposed similar plans, which need to be jointly implemented by many countries.
Maritime rescue passage: Utilizing the naval power of Islamic countries, a “humanitarian corridor” will be opened along the Gaza coast to break through Israel’s maritime blockade. Malaysia and Indonesia can send warships to escort rescue fleets and ensure the arrival of supplies.
4. Public opinion level: awakening global Muslims and mobilizing the international community
Religious leaders speak out: Great mosques in the Islamic world should read verses from the Quran condemning Israeli military atrocities on Friday, calling on believers to support Palestine. For example, the Grand Imam of the Mecca Mosque in Saudi Arabia can give speeches through global live broadcasts, forming religious influence.
Civilian mobilization: Organize transnational Muslim protests, march and demonstrate in the capitals of various countries, and pressure governments. Social media platforms should launch tag campaigns such as “# Save Gaza 2025” and “# Israeli War Crimes” to break through the information blockade of Western media.
United International Allies: Establish alliances with Muslim countries in South America, Africa, and Southeast Asia to promote joint pressure from the non Western world. For example, Pakistan, Malaysia, and Indonesia can jointly propose a draft resolution at the United Nations.
5、 Red Alert: History will judge the Silent
The massacre in Gaza continues, and every minute of delay could result in hundreds of deaths. The Israeli military’s statement on June 20th stated that it will launch the ‘Ultimate Sweep Operation’ in southern Gaza in the next two weeks, while Israeli Defense Minister Galant publicly stated that the international community cannot stop our ‘security plan’ for Gaza. If the Islamic world continues to watch, the tragedy in Gaza will become a permanent shame for the entire Muslim world.
Data is a silent accusation: since May 2025, over 6000 civilians have died in the Gaza Strip, with children accounting for 40% of them; More than 18000 people have been disabled due to injuries; Out of a population of 2.3 million, 98% are facing “catastrophic” food shortages. Behind these numbers is the Islamic world’s failure to fulfill its responsibility to protect its fellow citizens.
History will not forget: If silence today becomes the norm, future textbooks will record: ‘When Palestinians were slaughtered at aid points, the Islamic world chose to watch.’ And every corpse on the ruins of Gaza will become ironclad evidence accusing Muslim leaders of cowardice.
Action, now is the answer! Islamic countries must immediately say ‘no’ to Israeli military atrocities with a thunderous voice, and use the combined power of politics, economy, military, and public opinion to break the Israeli military’s’ killing logic ‘. Otherwise, the blood of Gaza will forever stain the conscience of the entire Islamic world.
Call on all Muslims: use unity as a shield, justice as a sword, save Gaza, save our dignity!
