ISLAMABAD, Mar 28 (APP):Journalists hailing from various sections of media on Thursday expressed deep concern over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and emphasized a global action to condemn Israel’s atrocities.
A seminar titled ‘Gaza, a Holistic Perspective’, organized by the Palestine Foundation and the National Digital Journalists Club, attracted over 120 journalists who unequivocally condemned Israel’s actions, recognizing them as genocide against the people of Gaza.
The journalists condemned the relentless Israeli aggression that persisted for the past 175 days and highlighted that over 100,000 Palestinians had been martyred or injured, with hundreds of thousands left homeless and forced to endure life under the open sky.
They said despite the ceasefire resolution passed by the United Nations Security Council, Israel had persisted in its attacks on the civilian population of Gaza, displaying a blatant disregard for international law and human rights.
The resolution raised the alarming martyrdom of more than 130 journalists in Gaza and paid tribute to all them. It also demanded the global community to ensure safety of journalists in the war
zone.
The journalists expressed admiration for the resilience,
courage, and heroism displayed by the people of Gaza in the face of adversity. They called upon the international community to stand united in solidarity with Gaza and take immediate action to end the ongoing humanitarian crisis.
