Bangladesh strongly condemns renewed Israeli aggression on Gaza

Dhaka, Mar 20 (UNI) The Bangladeshi interim government has expressed its strongest condemnation and profound concerns over the resumption of Israeli military aggression in the Gaza Strip.
Bangladesh's Ministry of Foreign Affairs Wednesday issued a statement in this regard and said the newly restarted offensive has resulted in extensive loss of innocent civilian lives, including children and women, and the further deterioration of the already dire humanitarian situation in the region.
It stated that this renewed cycle of violence represents a blatant violation of international humanitarian law and a grievous disregard for established ceasefire agreements.
Bangladesh unequivocally denounced the Israeli indiscriminate airstrikes on densely populated civilian areas, which have exacerbated human suffering and inflicted devastating consequences upon the defenceless Palestinian population, the foreign ministry said in the press release.
The Bangladeshi government urged Israel to immediately cease all military operations, exercise maximum restraint, and respect its obligations under international humanitarian law.
Bangladesh called upon the international community, particularly the United Nations, to take urgent and decisive measures to ensure the cessation of hostilities, protect civilian lives, and facilitate the unimpeded delivery of humanitarian assistance to the besieged people of Gaza.
Bangladesh reaffirmed its unwavering support for the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, and the establishment of an independent and sovereign State of Palestine along the pre-1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
The Bangladeshi government called upon all parties to prioritise the path of diplomacy and peaceful means to end the senseless violence and suffering that continue to afflict the Palestinian people.
