The Palestinian movement called in a statement, issued on World Humanitarian Day, 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 August 19, comes amid the continuation of the war of genocide, displacement, and ethnic cleansing against the Gaza Strip for more than ten months.
The Israeli regime’s atrocities have left more than 40,000 martyrs, most of them children and women, including 280 relief workers from UNRWA staff, and about 93,000 wounded.
In its statement, 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.”
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.”
Elsewhere in its statement, Hamas resistance movement, called on the 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 urged the United Nations and its institutions and all humanitarian organizations to assume their responsibilities in providing support to the 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 the people to live in freedom and dignity on their occupied land until the rights, liberation, and return are realized.”
