President of the Adhaalath Party, Sheikh Imran Abdulla has said that helping the people of Gaza is helping the most oppressed and poor.
Speaking to the press, Sheikh Imran said that the people of Gaza are under siege and are the most oppressed people in the world today.
Sheikh Imran said that the people of Maldives are well aware of the plight of the people of Gaza.
“The people of Maldives are well aware of the atrocities and genocides being committed by the Jewish occupation,” he said.
Sheikh Imran said that the people of Gaza is suffering through poverty, war and a crippling blockade that has isolated it from the rest of the world.
Meanwhile, the death toll in Gaza has topped 1,400, with more than 40 people dying after another day of intense Israeli bombardment from air, sea and land.
Palestinian officials in Gaza said on Thursday that 8,200 people had been wounded in the four-week operation. Up to 80% of the Palestinian casualties were civilians, according to local non-government organisations and the UN.
