Putin Likens Israel's Gaza Actions To Nazi Leningrad Siege, Slams Settlers, China Cries "Injustice"

Russia’s President has warned of "absolutely unacceptable" levels of civilian casualties if Israel decides to go ahead with its Gaza invasion. The Russian president also invoked the Nazi siege of Leningrad during World War 2 in his strongest criticism of Israel's blockade of Gaza yet. "There is talk of military and non-military measures being taken against the Gaza Strip, as was the case during the siege of Leningrad in the Second World War. We know what that means, don't we? And I think it is unacceptable," Putin said. Meanwhile, Moscow's ally China highlighted the “persistent failure to do justice to the Palestinian people” in calling for peace talks to resolve the issue. Hamas asked residents to stay put as the Israeli army dropped flyers on Gaza warning residents to flee “immediately” to the south.
