NEW DELHI: AIMIM supremo and Lok Sabha MP Asaduddin Owaisi on Tuesday urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to ensure that India does not align with countries "complicit in Israel’s crimes" amid the ongoing conflict in Gaza.
Taking to X, Owaisi wrote: "Israel is committing genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. Unlike the Holocaust, where many claimed ignorance, this genocide is widely known. PM Modi must ensure India does not join countries complicit in Israel’s crimes. India has always supported Palestine and opposed Israeli apartheid . Decisive action against genocide is needed."
The decades-old conflict between Israel and Palestine dates back to the formation of Israel in 1948, with both sides citing historical, religious, and cultural claims to the land. Over the years, tensions have frequently escalated into violence and war.
The latest round of conflict began on October 7, 2023 , when the Palestinian militant group Hamas launched a large-scale attack on Israel. Israel responded with heavy military action.
The war has since claimed thousands of lives, with civilians on both sides bearing the brunt of the violence.
