London: Rana Basharat Ali Khan, Chairman of the International Human Rights Movement, has called for urgent international intervention in response to the severe humanitarian crisis unfolding in Gaza. He emphasized the critical need for unimpeded humanitarian aid and the cessation of hostilities to prevent a looming famine. The situation in Gaza has escalated, with the region on the brink of an unprecedented humanitarian disaster as food, water, and medical supplies run critically low.
The United Nations and humanitarian agencies have repeatedly raised alarms about the catastrophic conditions in Gaza, where access to essential supplies has been severely restricted due to ongoing conflict. The World Food Programme recently reported that up to half of Gaza’s population is facing acute hunger, with many already at risk of starvation if aid is not urgently delivered. Despite some limited deliveries, aid agencies continue to face enormous obstacles, including border closures and security risks, preventing consistent and sufficient food supply to those in need.Rana Basharat Ali Khan stated, “The international community cannot remain silent while millions of people are trapped in a humanitarian nightmare. We urge all governments and international bodies to intensify efforts to ensure the safe delivery of food, water, and medical supplies to the people of Gaza. Without immediate action, the consequences will be devastating for generations to come. As part of the International Human Rights Movement’s ongoing efforts, Khan highlighted the organization’s commitment to advocating for the protection of civilians and the swift delivery of aid to conflict zones. The organization, which operates in over 60 countries with a network of 100,000 activists, continues to play a pivotal role in mobilizing support for those affected by human rights violations, particularly in conflict zones like Gaza. In his message, Khan also called for a sustained international focus on resolving the root causes of the conflict, urging for long-term peacebuilding and adherence to international law to prevent further humanitarian crises.
