Priyanka Gandhi Urges Action Against Gaza Violence on Children’s Day

On the occasion of Children’s Day in India, Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi voiced strong criticism of the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict, particularly the tragic impact on children and civilians. Expressing dismay at the international community’s response, she highlighted the death toll of over 10,000 people, including 5,000 children, in the Gaza conflict.

Gandhi questioned the lack of shock or ceasefire and condemned governments supporting the destruction. India’s abstention from a truce resolution, instead favoring an amendment condemning Hamas, drew scrutiny from Gandhi, who expressed shock and shame at the country’s decision. Her impassioned pleas underscore the urgency for global action to address the escalating humanitarian crisis in the region.
