PKS Faction: World Must Stop Israel’s Cruelty Immediately!

Jakarta (16/05) — Chairman of the PKS Faction in Indonesian Parliament, Jazuli Juwaini, expressed deep concern over the death of hundreds of Palestinian civilians following the Israeli attack on the Gaza. According to Palestinian official, 132 people have been killed, including 32 children and 21 women and another 950 people are injured.

Jazuli Juwaini, who is also the Vice President of the World Muslim Parliamentary Forum, asks the United Nations and other international organizations not to remain silent on the massacre of Palestinian civilians which happens in front of the world’s eyes.

“The United Nations and Islamic state organizations, especially countries in the Middle East region, must hold an emergency meeting immediately to stop Israeli aggression, which is increasingly brutal,” said Jazuli.

The member of Commission I of Indonesian Parliament from Banten province, which handles defence and security repeatedly say that the Palestinian people is facing the greatest tragedy in human history. Palestine is the only nation who live in colonialism in the modern age, while other nations have enjoyed freedom and independence.

“The PKS faction urged the countries of the world to take responsibility and not seeing it as a two-state conflict but violation of humanity, let alone turning a blind eye to the brutalism perpetrated by Israel,” he stressed.

Jazuli Juwaini appreciates the Indonesian Ministry of Foreign Affair statement which firmly supports the struggle of the Palestinian people. “This is due to the mandate from 1945 Constitution and Indonesia’s historical debt that has been uttered since the first Indonesian President Bung Karno.” The Indonesian government has also taken various efforts to call an emergency session at the the OIC, NAM, and the UN Security Council.

Apart from the ongoing diplomacy, Jazuli encouraged the Indonesian Government to provide real and concrete assistance that Palestinian people currently need. Moreover, the solidarity of Indonesian to help the Palestinian people at this time is extraordinary.

“It is time for the world to show a clear and resolute attitude towards Israel which continues to undermine the Palestinian territories and kill innocent civilians,” Jazuli concluded.
