Foreign Ministry Spokeswoman Marzieh Afkhamin a statement on Friday has slammed Israeli regime’s ground invasion of the Gaza Strip as the indication of Tel Aviv’s frustration.

According to Press TV, she said: “The ground invasion of the Gaza Strip is the indication of frustration of the Zionist regime (Israel) over the heroic resistance of the people of Palestine.”

She added: “Such aggression adds another page to the crimes and inhumane acts of the Zionists.”

Afkham noted that Israel’s attacks on the coastal enclave come as the regime has totally blocked access to basic humanitarian and medical equipment for the Gazans, which she stated amounts to “war crime.”

It is evident that the ground invasion of Gaza has taken place in the absence of the international bodies’ determination to fulfill their responsibilities in supporting the people of Palestine, the statement said.

Afkham called on the international community to put an end to Israel’s efforts to portray itself as innocent and underlined the need to stop the massacre of the defenseless women and children in Gaza.
