Palestinian Human Rights Organizations want Israeli leaders prosecuted for genocide. Their move is blocked by the US, the UK, and Europe.

United States Ambassador Sung Y. Kim explained the country’s viewpoint on Hamas, Israel, and Gaza, as well as the relationship between Indonesia and the US.

Hamas launched a deadly attack on Israel without being detected. Israel is preparing a ground assault on Gaza.

Palestinian Ambassador to Indonesia, Zuhair al-Shun, urges the international community to take concrete actions against Israel through economic or political blockade which he believes could pressure Israel. Al-Shun says that the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas is not a lasting resolution to bring an end to the conflict in Gaza adding that the United Nations has already passed many resolutions, among others Resolution 181 of 1947, to create free Palestine with East Jerusalem as its capital. He hopes that the United States’ new administration under President Joe Biden will take a fairer stance in the issue. Al-Shun also conveys the Palestinian authority’s appreciation towards political and humanitarian support given by the Indonesian government and its people and gives advice on how to properly funnel solidarity funds for the Palestinian people.
