Cileungsi, MINA – Jama’ah Muslimin (Hizbullah)  strongly condemns the Israeli airstrike on Rafah, resulting in the deaths of at least 100 civilians, predominantly women and children, and nearly 230 others injured in the massive aerial and artillery bombardment by Zionist Israel on Rafah in the early hours of Monday.

In response to this situation, Jama’ah Muslimin through Majelis Ukhuwah (the Assembly of Brotherhood ) pronounces its stance as follows:

Strongly condemns the brutal and indiscriminate actions of Zionist Israel, which ruthlessly bombed the shelters of 1.5 million Palestinian residents forcibly displaced from Gaza, in the early hours of Monday while the refugees were asleep.

Categorizes these actions as war crimes against the rights of refugees as formulated and defined by the United Nations (UN) in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of 1948, which include:

The right to life, liberty, and personal security

The right to seek and enjoy asylum

Freedom from persecution, cruelty, inhuman or degrading treatment

Freedom from slavery or forced labor

Recognition as a person before the law

Freedom of thought, opinion, and religion

Freedom from arbitrary arrest and detention

Freedom from arbitrary interference with privacy, family, or nationality

Freedom of opinion and expression

The right to education

The right to participate in cultural and community life.

Calls upon all member states of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) and the international community at large, including Arab, European, American, Latin American, African, Asian, and other countries, to urge the UN to convene an emergency session to condemn and halt Israel’s arbitrary actions that threaten peace and humanitarian values.

Urges the UN Security Council to take firm action and impose sanctions on Israel to stop its humanitarian crimes against the Palestinian people.

Appreciates the Government of the Republic of Indonesia, through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Indonesia, for urging the UN Security Council to take immediate action to halt Israel’s military aggression in the Gaza Strip, especially in the city of Rafah, and for urging the enforcement of International Humanitarian Law.

Furthermore, urges the government to take concrete and active steps in accordance with the constitutional mandate to participate in maintaining world peace, safeguarding the dignity of the Indonesian nation without limits, including participating in monitoring the delivery of humanitarian aid as a form of government and Indonesian people’s concern to alleviate the victims of genocide in Gaza, transported by the Indonesian Navy Hospital Ship (KBRS) KRI Radjiman Wedyodiningrat-992, which arrived at the Port of El Arish, Egypt on Tuesday, February 13, 2024.

Calls upon all Islamic nations to unite and act decisively and concretely against Israel to ensure and protect the fundamental rights of the Palestinian people and the universal humanitarian values ​​for them.

To the Palestinian people, may Allah grant them strength and victory in reclaiming the Al-Aqsa Mosque and their homeland, so that the world knows that the Palestinian people still exist and thrive, and they continue to develop their military technology so that victory will surely be obtained with the help of Allah, and may Allah destroy the Zionist forces and their supporters to their roots.

To all Muslims, especially and to all humanity in general who have innate conscience, to continue praying for the Palestinian people so that they return to their land and the Al-Aqsa Mosque returns to the hands of Muslims, and may the Zionists be soon expelled from Palestine with disgrace as they have humiliated the Palestinian people for so long.
