Jakarta (ANTARA) - The Aqsa Working Group (AWG) has strongly\ncondemned the installation of Zionist Israeli banners at the Indonesian\nHospital (RSI) in Gaza, calling it an unacceptable provocation that also\nviolates international law.<\/p>\n
\u201cAWG condemns in the strongest terms the installation of banners\ncelebrating Israel\u2019s national day at the Indonesian Hospital in Gaza.\nThis action constitutes an unacceptable form of provocation and violates\ninternational law,\u201d said AWG Presidium Chairman M. Anshorullah in a\npress release in Jakarta on Thursday.<\/p>\n
According to him, the placement of such banners as part of their\nnational holiday celebrations is characteristic of colonial regime\npractices in occupied territories.<\/p>\n
The Indonesian Hospital in Gaza is a monumental building constructed\nthrough contributions from the Indonesian people, initiated by\nMER-C.<\/p>\n
The presence of RSI represents Indonesia\u2019s humanitarian concern for\nthe Palestinian people, as well as a symbol of brotherhood over the\nbitter experience of colonisation.<\/p>\n
\u201cTherefore, any violation against it is an insult to the dignity of\nthe Indonesian people. This violation was carried out by Israel, a\nmember of the Board of Peace (BoP) and a close ally of the United\nStates,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
AWG demands that the UN and all its instruments prosecute Israel for\nthis violation and the injustices they have committed in Palestinian\nterritories and at Al-Aqsa Mosque.<\/p>\n
AWG also demands that the US government take responsibility for\nIsrael\u2019s crimes due to its provision of arms and funding support.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, AWG appreciates the condemnation from the Indonesian\ngovernment conveyed through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut it must not stop at statements of condemnation alone. Concrete\nand firm steps are needed to ensure the safety of this health facility\nprotected by international law,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
AWG also urges Indonesia to immediately withdraw from the BoP, which,\naccording to him, is incapable of stopping the crimes of Zionist Israel,\nlet alone prosecuting them. On the contrary, the Zionists have become\neven more brutal in carrying out various violations.<\/p>\n
In addition, AWG calls on the international community to immediately\ntake meaningful actions.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis action against RSI clearly violates various provisions of\ninternational law, which affirm that medical facilities must be\nprotected under all circumstances, especially those built through a\nnation\u2019s humanitarian contributions,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
AWG reaffirms its commitment to continue monitoring this issue and\ninvites all elements of the nation to strengthen solidarity in defending\nhumanitarian values and justice for the Palestinian people.<\/p>", "url": "https:\/\/jawawa.id\/newsitem\/awg-condemns-installation-of-israeli-banners-at-indonesian-hospital-in-gaza-1777013685", "image": "" }, "sponsor": "Okusi Associates", "sponsor_url": "https:\/\/okusiassociates.com" }
