Berlin – Saba:
German Chancellor Friedrich Mertz condemned the Israeli occupation forces' massacre at Fahmi Al-Jarjawi School in Gaza—which sheltered displaced families—as a "human tragedy and political disaster."
Key Statements at European Forum (WDR):
1. On Military Excess:
"This military operation has crossed all red lines. Frankly, I no longer understand its purpose—what's happening to civilians is unjustifiable."
2. On Germany's Historical Responsibility:
"Our history demands we avoid public 'advice' to Israel. But when boundaries are breached and international humanitarian law violated, Germany—and I as Chancellor—must speak out, as I've done unequivocally recently."
Massacre Details (Per WAFA):
- 31 civilians martyred (18 children, 6 women)
- Dozens wounded in attack on displaced families' shelter.
- Part of Israel's US/EU-backed genocide since October 7, 2023:
