With deep concern and heavy hearts, we observe that the continuous and systematic brutal attacks Israel is carrying out in the Gaza Strip constitute crimes against humanity and a gross violation of international human rights law. These attacks are not only against Palestinians but also a ruthless assault on humanity, justice, and the global conscience. We strongly condemn this ongoing violence, genocide, and destruction, and call on Israel to immediately cease its military operations.
Since the military aggression began on October 7, 2023, more than 50,000 Palestinians have been killed as of April 2025, with one-third of them being children and a significant portion women. Over 115,000 people have been injured, and hundreds of thousands of families have been rendered homeless. Additionally, Israel’s attacks have killed over a thousand healthcare workers, more than 200 journalists and media personnel, and hundreds of aid workers affiliated with international organizations. Educational institutions, hospitals, mosques, churches, media offices, international aid agency offices, and refugee camps—nothing has been spared. Violating ceasefire agreements, Israel resumed its brutal attacks on March 18, 2025, killing approximately 1,500 innocent Palestinians. The unconditional support of the United States for Israel is prolonging this war.
We call upon the United States, the United Nations, the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), the European Union, and the international community to immediately intervene in Israel’s war crimes and brutal attacks, ensure a ceasefire, and take effective steps to establish a sustainable and dignified peace. We also urge the International Criminal Court to conduct an impartial investigation into these war crimes and bring those responsible to justice.
It is urgently necessary to establish a safe and permanent “humanitarian corridor” in the besieged Gaza Strip to deliver essential aid to the injured, sick, and affected populations. We believe that a lasting solution to this crisis is only possible through the establishment of an independent Palestinian state, where Palestinians can live with dignity, safety, and freedom.
The war in Gaza must stop now.
To save humanity, justice must be established.
We stand with justice, we stand with the oppressed.
