SRINAGAR: Concerned for the humanitarian crisis that is unfolding in Gaza, doctors and paramedics in various hospitals in Kashmir held pro-Palestine demonstrations. Healthcare workers, wearing aprons and holding banners and placards, shouted slogans against the “Zionist killers”.
Meanwhile, President of Doctors Association Kashmir, Dr Nisarul Hassan in a statement called for an immediate truce in Gaza and deplored the American opposition to a resolution moved in Human Rights Council of the United Nations. He said that Doctors and paramedics wore black bands in response to the call given by DAK to observe Friday, July 25, as black day against the “Israeli onslaught on Gaza.”
According to a statement , DAK said, Israel is incessantly bombing Gaza from all sides slaughtering civilians and showing wanton disregard to humanity. Israel is an evil machine with killing strategy.
It added: Hospitals, Mosques, Residential places are targeted. Even Ambulances and beat up vans that ferry the dead to cemeteries are not spared. A United Nations school that had sheltered Palestinians who fled their homes for safety from Israeli assaults was struck, thus there is no safe place in Gaza and helpless Gazans are waiting for their death which can come from any direction.
The DAK has opined: UN Human Rights Council launched a commission of inquiry into Israeli war crimes in Gaza where all except United States voted against. International bodies are drafting resolution after resolution but it’s time to enforce immediate truce to save further loss of human lives. We have a responsibility to protest against this heinous crime on humanity and show solidarity with Palestinians.
