O Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva took to social media this Sunday to say that “the Israeli government continues to sabotage the peace process and the ceasefire in the Middle East.”
For Lula da Silva, “the most recent bombing carried out in the Gaza Strip, claiming the lives of hundreds of innocent people, is unacceptable.”
“Now with more than 90 fatalities and almost 300 injured in tents that sheltered children, the elderly, and women. It is appalling that they continue to collectively punish the Palestinian people. There have already been tens of thousands of deaths in successive attacks since last year, many of them in delimited humanitarian zones that should be protected,” the publication reads.
The Brazilian leader also considered that the “political leaders of the democratic world” should not “remain silent in the face of this endless massacre”.
“The ceasefire and peace in the region must be priorities on the international agenda. All our efforts must be focused on securing the release of Israeli hostages and an end to the attacks on the Gaza Strip,” he wrote in conclusion.
