Jamaat-e-Islami Hind President Syed Saadatullah Hussaini has strongly condemned the growing massacre and human crisis in Gaza. Hussaini urged the Government of India, world powers and rational citizens from all over the world to stand up against harassment and take immediate action to stop the Israeli’s ongoing attack.
In a statement issued to the media, the Jamaat president said, ‘More than 20.1 lakhs, including about 1.1 million children, are stuck in Palestinian Gaza due to continuous siege and bombing. Since the ceasefire broke on 18 March 2025, Israel has increased its military aggression.
Full blockage on essential items
He further said that apart from this, there is complete blockade on help and essential items. The people of Gaza are dying of hunger and thirst, their houses are collapsing and their voices have been suppressed. The situation is very serious. The Israeli government is planning complete destruction of the people of Gaza and the world should take action from now on to stop this near destruction.
Hussain said that 90% of Gaza’s medical facilities have either been destroyed or are not working. Only a few nutrition centers are running throughout the Gaza Strip, while thousands of tonnes of aid materials, including food and medicines, have been stuck on the boundary posts for months. Diseases like diarrhea, hepatitis and respiratory infection are spreading rapidly due to lack of cleanliness and clean water availability.
UNICEF reports
He further said that according to UNICEF reports, 6,60,000 children are unable to go to school and more than 17,000 children are alone or orphans. If the siege is not removed, there is a possibility of a large famine by September 2025. Hussaini called upon the international community to take decisive action and said that this is an examination for the global system.
He said that we call on all countries to break military and economic relations with Israel, to follow the ICC arrest warrant for Netanyahu and support the United Nations General Assembly to end illegal occupation.
Eliminate dual criteria rich countries
Hussain said that in the case of Israeli, double standards of the United States -led rich and powerful nations should end. Now the time has come for the US and its allies only move beyond the showy things and start following the great principles of peace and justice that they claim.
India should also take initiative
Syed Hussaini urged the Government of India to fulfill his historical and moral responsibility by adopting a firm and theoretical attitude. India has always supported Palestine’s equitable side. In this important moment, we should raise our voice more vigorously and clearly than before. The government should publicly condemn Israel’s action.
All military and strategic partnerships with him should be suspended and support the international initiative to justify the attackers. Our voice should be directed not by political calculations, but by our constitutional values and civilized ethos. He reiterated, ‘There is no neutral diplomacy in front of the massacre, it is a reasonable opportunity to stand on the right side of history.’
Appeal to ordinary citizens
Calling the citizens of India, Hussaini appealed for active participation in peaceful resistance. He said, we urge our fellow citizens to raise their voice, boycott Israeli products and companies involved in this genocide and oppose the misinformation being spread about Palestinian resistance. At the same time, we should use every platform such as social media, public functions and personal conversations to share the truth about Gaza and stand with the oppressed.
