Ahlulbayt News Agency: On World Humanitarian Day, the Hamas Movement called for “criminalizing the occupation’s violations against humanitarian work, stopping its escalating terrorism against the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, and Jerusalem.”
The Movement also called in a statement issued Monday for urgent action to intensify humanitarian and relief work in support of the Palestinian people and their steadfastness on their land.
The World Humanitarian Day, which the United Nations and the countries of the world celebrate on this day, August 19, comes amid the continuation of the war of genocide, displacement, and ethnic cleansing against the Gaza Strip for the 318th day, during which more than 40,000 martyrs have been killed, most of them children and women, including 280 relief workers from UNRWA staff, and about 93,000 wounded, thousands missing under the rubble, and thousands others kidnapped and detained in the occupation’s prisons, against whom the most heinous crimes of brutal torture and revenge killing are practiced, the statement reads.
On the World Humanitarian Day, Hamas affirmed that “the international community’s celebration of this day places all of them, countries, governments, and organizations, before a political, legal, moral, and humanitarian responsibility to stand with the just cause of our people and their legitimate rights, who are being subjected to the most heinous crime of genocide in modern history, for over ten months, which will remain a stigma on all those who are negligent in stopping and ending it and prosecuting its perpetrators in international courts”.
The Movement also hailed “the work, role, and efforts of all humanitarian and relief work teams from our people and institutions, especially in the Gaza Strip, who provide their services despite the bombing and the occupation’s escalation of all forms of crime, killing, and destruction against them,” calling on Arab, Islamic, and international organizations working in the field of humanitarian and relief work to intensify their work and programs and provide more humanitarian, health, educational, and relief services.
Hamas also called on “all countries and governments to criminalize the racist and criminal practices and violations committed by the fascist occupation government against the humanitarian work teams supporting our Palestinian people, to pressure the occupation to stop its terrorism against them, and to provide protection to continue their role and humanitarian work.”
The statement concluded by calling “on the United Nations and its institutions and all humanitarian organizations to assume their responsibilities in providing support to our Palestinian people in all places where they are located, especially in the Gaza Strip, and we stress the need to continue their humanitarian work in solidarity and support for the legitimate rights of our people to live in freedom and dignity on their occupied land until the rights, liberation, and return are realized.”
