Belfast's International Wall is alive with murals echoing the city's solidarity with besieged Gaza where Israel's 176-day war has killed at least 32,623 Palestinians and wounded 75,092 others.
The artworks stand as a symbol of unwavering support for besieged Palestinians in the bustling capital of Northern Ireland.
Demonstrations have been held across the UK in recent months in response to Israel's brutal war that has killed and wounded thousands while more dead are believed to be buried under rubble and more than 80 percent of Gaza's 2.4 million population is displaced, many at risk of famine.
Israel's war on besieged Gaza — now in its 176th day — has killed at least 32,623 Palestinians and wounded 75,092 others.
UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestine Territories Francesca Albanese has accused Israel of carrying out genocide in Gaza, adding efforts should be made to stop the "ongoing genocide" in Palestine.
The United Nations has warned that famine "is ever closer to becoming a reality in northern Gaza", and says Gaza's health system is collapsing "due to ongoing hostilities and access constraints".
UNRWA has hailed the International Court of Justice (ICJ) for ordering Israel to take measures “without delay” to ensure “the unhindered provision” of basic services and humanitarian aid.
Israel has imposed a crippling blockade on Gaza, leaving its population, particularly residents of northern Gaza, on the verge of starvation.
Israeli air strikes and shelling have reduced large swathes of the densely populated coastal Gaza to rubble and killed more than 32,000, some 45 percent of them children.
More than 80% of the 2.4 million population have been displaced by Israeli war, many of them at risk of famine.
World Court has unanimously ordered Israel, accused by South Africa and a UN expert of genocide in Gaza, to take all necessary and effective action to ensure basic food supplies to the enclave's Palestinian population and halt spreading famine.
