Party called for immediate end to hostilities and urgent intervention of UNSC
The Congress on Friday called for an immediate cessation of hostilities between Israel and Hamas and asked India to proactively work with the United Nations Security Council to restore peace in the region. Chairman of the Congress’ Foreign Affairs department, Anand Sharma, said that spiralling violence, coinciding with the holy festival of Eid, is distressing and a matter of grave concern for the world. “The Congress party urges for immediate cessation of hostilities by both Israel and Hamas and calls for urgent intervention of the UN Security Council (UNSC) to restore peace. The issue is both moral and humanitarian. India as a member of the UNSC should proactively work to achieve this objective,” Mr. Sharma said in a statement.More Related News
