Indonesia ready to shelter wounded, orphaned Gazans: President Prabowo

Indonesia is ready to grant temporary shelter to children and wounded Palestinians affected by the Israeli war on Gaza, President Prabowo Subianto said.

AhlulBayt News Agency: Indonesia is ready to grant temporary shelter to children and wounded Palestinians affected by the Israeli war on Gaza, President Prabowo Subianto said.

"We are ready to receive wounded victims," Prabowo said on Wednesday, before leaving for a Middle East visit to the United Arab Emirates, Turkey, Egypt, Qatar and Jordan.

"We are ready to send planes to transport them. We estimate the numbers may be 1,000 for the first wave."

Wounded Palestinians and "traumatized, orphaned children" would be prioritized, he said.

He said he had instructed his foreign minister to talk with Palestinian officials and "parties in the region" on how to evacuate wounded or orphaned Gazans.

The victims would only be in Indonesia until they recovered and it was safe for their return.
  
Indonesia, the world's most populous Muslim nation, has consistently called for an end to the Israeli regime’s genocidal war on the Gaza Strip.
