Malaysia Condemns Israel S Barbaric Attack During Aidilfitri

---

 

Malaysia has unreservedly condemned Israel’s continuous, indiscriminate as well as targeted attacks against Palestinians during Hari Raya Aidilfitri, Wisma Putra said.
This includes the airstrikes on the Shati refugee camp in northern Gaza.
“The barbaric and senseless acts of the Israeli regime clearly exhibit their abhorrence and culture of impunity, going against every principle of humanity, peace and compassion that this holy occasion symbolises.
“Our hearts go out to the affected families as Malaysia stands firm against these acts of state-sponsored terrorism and genocide,” it said in a statement, according to Bernama.
Wisma Putra said Israel’s continuous aggression will severely hamper the remaining prospects for a ceasefire and peaceful settlement of the conflict, and seriously call into question its intention, if any, for such an objective.
It called on the international community to take resolute and concrete actions to stop these atrocities and the man-made catastrophe in Gaza and bring to account those responsible for war crimes and crimes against humanity.
“The United Nations Security Council, the International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court must fulfil their responsibilities.
“The Security Council must consider establishing an international criminal tribunal to prosecute and bring to justice those responsible for such crimes.
“Malaysia remains resolute in its pursuit of a peaceful resolution to the longstanding conflict, which has claimed far too many lives and caused so much misery and destruction over the past 75 years.
“It firmly upholds the principle that Palestinians unequivocally deserve the establishment of their own independent and sovereign state, based on the pre-1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital,” the statement added.
Yesterday’s air strike also claimed the lives of Hamas leader Sheikh Ismail Hanniyeh’s three sons and two grandchildren. - Mkini
