The head of Hamas' political bureau, Dr. Khalil al-Hiya, is sending messages to Arab and Islamic countries to take urgent action to deal with the humanitarian disaster in Gaza #.
Khalil al-Haya: What Gaza is witnessing is no longer just an emergency aid crisis or natural consequences of the war.
- What Gaza is witnessing is a complex reality in which policies of hunger, systematic destruction of the necessities of life and a deliberate restriction of the entry of aid and materials necessary for recovery are combined.
We emphasize the necessity to act to compel Israel to fully implement the ceasefire agreement.
We call for an international emergency campaign to be launched to deal with the consequences of the winter in Gaza and to provide shelter, heating and fuel supplies.
We call for the repair of sewage and rainwater networks, the restoration of damaged facilities, and the provision of safe and dignified shelter centers for displaced people in Gaza.
We call for raising the necessary international funding for humanitarian response, early recovery and rehabilitation, and ensuring the entry of the necessary construction materials, equipment and mechanisms.
We call on concerned countries to take urgent action to rally support for a proposed resolution requiring the enemy to implement its commitments and to hold an emergency session of the Security Council to determine the extent of the humanitarian disaster in Gaza.
