India’s Commitment to Gaza Peace and Humanitarian Aid

Amidst escalating tensions in Gaza, India’s Ambassador to the U.N., Ruchira Kamboj, voiced deep concern over the prolonged conflict during a recent U.N. General Assembly meeting. Emphasizing the unacceptable loss of civilian lives, particularly among women and children, Kamboj underscored India’s unwavering condemnation of such violence.

India calls for urgent de-escalation efforts to prevent further suffering and emphasizes the necessity of scaling up humanitarian aid to address the dire situation. Reiterating its support for a two-state solution, India advocates for meaningful negotiations to achieve lasting peace. Furthermore, India expresses solidarity with Palestinian refugees by increasing its annual contribution to the UNRWA and stands ready to assist in alleviating their plight.

Amid allegations implicating UNRWA staff in the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack, India supports a thorough investigation to ensure the agency’s neutrality and effectiveness in delivering aid. As tensions persist, India remains committed to fostering stability and peace in the region through diplomatic engagement and humanitarian assistance.
