ZENROREN demands immediate halt of the attack against GAZA and settle the issue through diplomatic negotiation

Zenroren condemns the brutal killing carried out by the armed forces of Israel against the Palestinian people in Gaza. No one can justify these unprecedentedly large-scale attacks against the people, who has been denied its most basic human rights in the autonomous areas, as well as their rights recognized by the United Nations to build a sovereign state.

Zenroren expresses deep concern over the facts that more than 3000 people including children were killed or injured, and that the continued attack brings a major setback to efforts for seeking a just and permanent peace settlement through negotiations with Israel and the Palestinian Authority,

We urge the government of Israel to cease the firing and withdraw the troops from the territory immediately, and the United Nations and other international bodies to exercise the full authority to bring about immediate ceasefire and to open the way for renewed peace process.

For realizing the above objectives, we remain committed to doing all we can.
