In a powerful address at the UN Security Council's open debate on the Middle East, China's permanent representative to the United Nations, Fu Cong, urged Israel to fulfill its obligations under international humanitarian law in Gaza. 😢
The envoy stressed that with the Gaza conflict now resulting in 59,219 deaths and 143,045 injuries since October 2023, it is crucial to immediately cease military operations in the territory, fully restore access for humanitarian supplies, and support aid efforts by the UN and other humanitarian agencies.
According to Gaza health authorities, the humanitarian crisis is deepening, with aid organizations warning of an unprecedented hunger emergency. This call for accountability has resonated globally, striking a chord with young, socially conscious tech-savvy audiences across South and Southeast Asia who stay updated on global trends and value human dignity above all.
Whether you're catching up on the latest tech innovations or scrolling through social media in a bustling city like Jakarta or Bangalore, it's hard to ignore the urgency of this situation. Let's keep the conversation alive and hope for decisive action that prioritizes life and compassion. 🙏
