Mohammad Shtayyeh, Palestinian Prime Minister:
Israel is launching a comprehensive war against the Palestinian people. This war is not against Hamas. This war is against children, women, university professors, priests, chefs, you name it.
Look at the list of Palestinians who have been killed. They have names. They have their mothers. They have fathers. They have dreams. There are more than 1,000 Palestinians who are under the rubble. In Gaza, we don't have the equipment. We don't have the bulldozers to remove the rubble at this stage.
So it is a catastrophic situation. And the Israelis are the occupiers. So, when people speak about self-defense, a self — an occupier is not in a self-defense situation. An occupier is an attacker, an aggressor.
