The war that has broken out between Palestine and Israel has caught the attention of the world as other countries have since rallied to provide support and aid.
Recently, the Selangor government will be providing RM1 million to the Humanitarian Trust Fund for the People of Palestine, managed by the Foreign Ministry, according to Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari.
According to him, besides alleviating the suffering of the Palestinian people, the aid is also expected to be part of the collective efforts of communities and nations worldwide to uphold the principles of justice and oppose violence.
“Since October 9, the suffering caused by the corrupt action in terms of morals and principles of the (Zionist) regime that seeks to eliminate a defenceless population and violates international law has resulted in the loss of up to 4,000 Palestinian lives.”
“At this time, the international community has a responsibility to set aside all differences, support a ceasefire, and facilitate the safe and speedy delivery of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip, especially to the victims, including women, children, and the elderly,” he said in a statement.
