“The state of Israel has turned the occupied territories of Palestine into permanent death camps,” said the ANC.

South Africa’s ruling party on Thursday denounced Israel’s ongoing onslaught on the Gaza Strip, urging South Africans to protest the Israeli attacks and show solidarity with the Palestinian people.

“The African National Congress (ANC) condemns in the strongest terms the barbaric attacks on the defenseless Palestinian people of Gaza,” ANC Deputy Secretary-General Jessie Duarte said in a statement.

At least 81 Palestinians, including several women and children, have been killed in Israeli airstrikes since Monday.

According to Palestinian security sources, Israeli warplanes have conducted more than 770 airstrikes against targets in Gaza over the same period.

Israel says its military offensive – dubbed “Operation Protective Edge” – is aimed at ending rocket fire from Gaza.

“The state of Israel has turned the occupied territories of Palestine into permanent death camps,” said the ANC.

“As we move towards the month of August and are reminded of the atrocities of Nazi Germany, surely we must ask the people of Israel has the term ‘lest we forget’ lost it meaning?”

South Africa’s ruling party also condemned the “senseless” killing last month of three Israeli settlers in the West Bank.

“But for the state of Israel, the notion of ‘an eye for an eye’ has become perpetual massacre with merciless revenge, which has lasted for more than 60 years. It is time to stop the killing,” it asserted.

Describing the Gaza Strip as “the world’s largest open-air prison,” the ANC demanded an end to the “illegal Israeli occupation and collective Israeli punishment of the Palestinians.”

“The collective punishment and illegal siege of the Palestinian people of Gaza must immediately end,” the party insisted.

The ANC went on to urge all South Africans, regardless of their ethnic and religious backgrounds, to protest against Israel’s deadly offensive and show solidarity with the people of Gaza.

“Apartheid South Africa’s wanton killing of our people during the 1980s led to its isolation; it would seem that Israel is taking a similar path of isolation by embarking on these attacks,” it said.

“We are unequivocal in our support for the Palestinian people in their struggle for self-determination and unapologetic in our view that the Palestinians are the victims and the oppressed in the conflict with Israel,” the ANC added

In the aftermath of the failed suicide bombing attempt on a military facility by a female terrorist who blew herself up in Gombe recently, troops have arrested three suspected female terrorists who have been secretly recruiting ladies into the female wing of the terrorists group. The suspects, Hafsat Usman Bako, Zainab Idris and Aisha Abubakar were intercepted while travelling to Madagali from where they were to transit to the forest to reunite with their cohorts.

Investigations revealed that the suspects, led by Hafsat Bako, have the mission to recruit members into the female wing as well as conduct espionage for the group. Hafsat’s link with the terrorists group had earlier been a subject of investigation in 2012, when security agents on a manhunt for one Usman Bako, her husband who was identified as a terrorist, stormed their residence in Jimeta.  This resulted in the discovery of an AK 47 rifle and 2 loaded magazines.   Though Usman Bako later died in an encounter with troops in Sokoto where he had relocated to continue his terrorist activities, Hafsat continued with the terror group specializing in surreptitious recruitment of members into their fold.

The arrested trio suspects were luring ladies especially widows and young girls by enticing them with male suitors who are mainly members of their terror group for marriage. Before their arrest, they were on a mission to take additional briefing from the leadership of the terror group.

The trio has been operating together as members of the intelligence team of the group.   Their arrest has yielded information still being verified by security agencies.
