Malaysia has strongly condemned Israel’s aggression in Gaza, describing it as a violation of international humanitarian law. The relentless airstrikes, forced evacuations, and destruction of civilian infrastructure have caused immense suffering among Palestinians, raising global alarm over the worsening humanitarian crisis. The keyword “Israel’s aggression” underscores the urgency for an end to the violence.
Targeting of Hospitals and Safe Zones
Malaysia’s Foreign Ministry expressed outrage at the deliberate targeting of hospitals, particularly the recent assault on Kamal Adwan Hospital. Patients and medical staff were forcibly removed, an act Malaysia stated “clearly” violates international humanitarian law. The strikes on designated safe zones and residential areas were described as systematic acts of genocide.
Call for International Action
The ministry urged the global community to fulfill its collective responsibility to halt the atrocities. It emphasized the need for peace, justice, and adherence to international law. Malaysia called for an immediate end to the occupation of Palestinian territories and demanded Palestine’s rightful membership in the United Nations.

War Crimes Allegations Against Israel
Since the conflict escalated in October 2023, more than 45,550 Palestinians, predominantly women and children, have been killed in Gaza. The International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants in November for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity.
Additionally, the International Court of Justice is handling a genocide case against Israel. According to a December report by Human Rights Watch, Israel’s restrictions on Gaza’s water supply fall below the minimum necessary for survival, constituting an act of genocide. Amnesty International’s findings further corroborate these allegations.
Devastation in Gaza
Israeli airstrikes have reduced Gaza to rubble, displacing countless families and destroying essential infrastructure. Negotiations to end the war have stalled, with Malaysia accusing Netanyahu of obstructing meaningful progress. The ongoing violence underscores the dire need for an immediate ceasefire and a sustainable resolution.
A Plea for Justice
Malaysia’s condemnation reflects growing international frustration over the lack of action to protect civilians in Gaza. The nation’s call for peace and accountability highlights the urgent need for global intervention to end the suffering of Palestinians and ensure justice prevails.
This conflict remains one of the gravest humanitarian crises in modern times, demanding a unified global response to prevent further loss of life.
