Will killing of Palestinians continue?

We are profoundly concerned about the continued bombardment of Middle Gaza by Israeli forces. The Health Ministry in Hamas-run Gaza said on Thursday that the Palestinian death toll from nearly nine months of war has surged past 38,011.

We regret that the world is witnessing the killings in Gaza, but none is taking any effective measures to stop such deaths. We also condemn the human rights organisations for their silent stance about the Israeli attack on Gaza. This is one kind of hypocrisy.

Israeli forces bombed on Wednesday as tens of thousands of Palestinians scrambled for a safe haven after the army issued an evacuation order for a vast swathe in the territory's south. Apache helicopters and Israeli quadcopter drones flew above Gaza City's Shujaiya district as heavy gunfire echoed through the streets.

The Muslims should remain united and “it should be done for the security of the Muslim Ummah and mitigating the misery of the Palestinians”. We also express our condolence for the death in Gaza and demanded for immediate ceasefire there.

The war needs to be stopped immediately and the International community should take quick steps for the purpose. Over 400 million people are living in Arab countries, but they are not united. If they become united, then the torture and oppression over the Palestinians would be stopped easily.

The Arab world has power and resources, just unity could stop the Israeli aggression. The United Nations warned that the almost nine-month-old war had "unleashed a maelstrom of human misery" and that the latest evacuation order had plunged yet more Palestinians into "an abyss of suffering".

Tens of thousands of Palestinians have again taken to the road there, many bundling their scant belongings on top of cars or donkey carts as they sought safety elsewhere in the bombed-out wasteland. Palestinian civilians in Gaza have been plunged into an abyss of suffering, their home lives shattered, their lives upended. The war has not merely created the most profound of humanitarian crises. 

We are deeply concerned about the clear violations of international humanitarian law that the whole world is witnessing in Gaza. It should be clear that no party to an armed conflict is above international humanitarian law.
