The Brazilian president has deplored Israeli crimes against Palestinians in Gaza calling for global action to take action for an end of the genocidal war in the besieged strip.

Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva made the remarks on Sunday in reaction to an Israeli attack on a camp for the displaced people in southern Gaza, which killed at least 90 people and injured 300 more, and also a regime strike on a mosque at al-Shati refugee camp in the territory's north that killed 20 civilians. Another Israeli strike on Sunday killed 15 people at a school sheltering those displaced by the war.

"The most recent bombings in the Gaza Strip, which claimed the lives of hundreds of innocent people, are unacceptable," said a statement issued by Lula's office.

Urging the world not to remain silent in the face of Israel's deadly strikes on Palestinians in Gaza, the Brazilian president added, “It is appalling that they continue to collectively punish the Palestinian people.”

“Tens of thousands [of Palestinians] have already died in successive [Israeli] attacks since last year, many of them in delimited humanitarian zones that should be protected," the statement added.

The Brazilian president concluded by saying, "We, the political leaders of the democratic world, cannot remain silent in the face of this endless massacre."

Tensions have been rising between the South American country and the Israeli regime ever since the latter launched a genocidal war on Gaza on October 7, 2023.

Israel’s bloody onslaught has so far killed 38,584 Palestinians, mostly women and children, leaving 88,881 others injured.
