Gaza situation alarming, atrocities must end, says Malaysia

NEW DELHI, Nov 8 — The relentless Israeli attacks on civilians in Gaza is alarming, hence all countries must come together to put an end to the present conflict, Malaysian Foreign Minister Datuk Seri Dr Zambry Abdul Kadir said.

He said Malaysia is working with like-minded countries for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.

"What is happening now is alarming and unprecedented," Zambry told reporters on Tuesday night in New Delhi.

"All countries must come together to address this issue," he said, highlighting the killing of more than 10,000 people in Gaza including 4,000 children and dozens of journalists and United Nations staff in the Israeli bombing since Oct 7.

Israel has blockaded Gaza and cut off all food, water, medicine and electricity supplies to its 2.3 million residents.

Its military has bombed water sources, fishing boats, hospitals, schools, mosques and wiped out entire residential blocks, drawing charges of committing genocide on a scale never seen before.

"No individual, leader or country with a moral conscience would tolerate such atrocities perpetrated against innocent people," Zambry said.

The foreign minister said horrendous atrocities are taking place "without any sense of humanity."

"This is unacceptable," he said.
