Al-Azhar Imam deplores world silence on sufferings of Palestine, Yemen, Sudan

The imam of Egypt’s Al-Azhar Islamic Center criticized the silence of international bodies on the Israeli regime’s crimes against Palestinians and on the suffering of the people of Yemen and Sudan.

AhlulBayt News Agency (ABNA): The imam of Egypt’s Al-Azhar Islamic Center criticized the silence of international bodies on the Israeli regime’s crimes against Palestinians and on the suffering of the people of Yemen and Sudan.

Sheikh Ahmed al-Tayeb stressed the need for sympathy with the oppressed people of the Gaza Strip, especially its women and children, and with the Sudanese and Yemeni nations and other nations that are suffering.

He also urged the Muslim Ummah to remain vigilant and make sure that it can find solutions for its problems without relying on others.

Meanwhile, Egyptian Foreign Minister Badr Abdelatty condemned the Israeli regime’s continued aggression on Gaza, describing it as the root cause of crisis in the region.

He said unless there is an end to the Israel war on the Palestinian enclave, there would be no stability in the region.

The Egyptian top diplomat also censured the international community for remaining indifferent to the massacre of people in Gaza and forcing starvation on the population there.

More than 41,000 Palestinians have been killed, mostly women and children, and nearly 100,000 others injured in the Israeli aggression on Gaza since October 7, 2023, according to Palestinian health authorities.​​​​​​​

The Israeli war on Gaza has pushed 85% of the territory's population into internal displacement amid acute shortages of food, clean water and medicine, while 60% of the enclave's infrastructure has been damaged or destroyed, according to the UN.

The Israeli regime stands accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice. An interim ruling in January ordered Tel Aviv to stop genocidal acts and take measures to guarantee that humanitarian assistance is provided to civilians in Gaza.

The Israeli attacks have continued unabated, however, and aid deliveries remain woefully insufficient to address the humanitarian catastrophe.
