Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Parrilla has accused the United States of complicity with Israel in the “genocide” it is committing against the Palestinian people in Gaza, Anadolu reported.

Rodriguez posted a photo on his account on X on Wednesday showing missiles sent by the United States to Israel with the caption: “For 325 days, Israel has been carrying out criminal attacks against the population in Gaza, resulting in 40,476 Palestinians being killed and 93,647 injured.”

The Cuban minister added, “Israel has a definite collaborator in its genocide against Palestine; the US government, which has delivered 50,000 tonnes of military aid.”

The US administration is facing sharp criticism for its unconditional support for Israel in its bombing campaign in Gaza.

Israel has continued its brutal offensive on the Gaza Strip since 7 October in spite of facing genocide charges at the International Court of Justice.
