The Cuban Minister of Foreign Affairs, Bruno Rodríguez, on Thursday called Israel's attacks in Gaza following the ceasefire agreement promoted by the United States a "mockery" of peace.
"Israel's attacks on Gaza after the signing of peace in Sharm El Sheikh are not only a mockery of the agreement promoted by the US government and a disrespect for International Law, they are a demonstration of the impunity with which the Zionist regime acts and its decision to continue the genocide against the Palestinian people," the foreign minister assured on his social media.
Israel killed four Palestinians in the Gaza Strip on Wednesday despite an established ceasefire, according to the enclave's Ministry of Health in its daily bulletin.

Health specified that these Israeli attacks also left a dozen injured.
EFE was able to verify bombings early Wednesday with Israeli tanks and drones against different points in the north of the Strip and also in the southern city of Rafah.
Israel justifies these attacks alleging that Gazans violate what is known as the "yellow line" that marks the point where troops have withdrawn within Gaza, in this first phase of the ceasefire agreement.
The ceasefire agreement and the start of the first phase of the peace plan of the US President, Donald Trump, for the Gaza Strip came into effect last Friday, after the withdrawal of Israeli troops from the Gazan cities, as agreed.
This first phase covers the release of the 48 captives in Gaza, of whom Israeli authorities estimate that about 20 are still alive.
The agreement also contemplates the withdrawal of Israeli troops to certain points in the Strip, thus reducing their control from more than 80% to 53% of the enclave's territory. Cuba accuses the government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of genocide since the beginning of Israel's attacks in Gaza, which have left more than 67,000 dead. Havana broke diplomatic relations with Tel Aviv in 1973. The Caribbean country also advocates for the two-state solution as the only alternative and for the right of the Palestinian people to build their own state within the pre-1967 borders and with its capital in East Jerusalem.
