Lahore: Ameer of Tanzeem-e-Islami, Shujauddin Shaikh has said that the illegitimate Zionist state of Israel using hunger as a weapon in Gaza is the worst form of savagery and a crime against humanity.

This was said by Shujauddin Shaikh in a statement issued on Friday. He said that the history of Jews in general and the illegal Zionist state of Israel in particular is filled with crimes against humanity. The reality is that since October 7, 2023, not a single day has passed without the illegitimate Zionist state of Israel attacking the oppressed and helpless people of Gaza, causing their shahadah. According to media-reported statistics, in the past approximately 22 months, Israel has caused shahadah of over 60,000 Palestinian Muslims and severely injured more than 120,000, turning Gaza into a pile of rubble.

Now, hunger and famine are being used as weapons against the Muslims of Gaza, which has even alarmed some Western countries. The Muslims of Gaza, especially women and children, are being targeted while they are suffering from hunger and disease, and America is fully supporting Israel in this satanic brutality. According to reports from international organizations, this is the first time in history that a region has been forced to import 100% of its blood supply for the injured and sick because Israeli savages have destroyed all hospitals in Gaza.

Shujauddin Shaikh said that furthermore, aid is not being allowed to enter Gaza, causing the entire population to barely manage one meal a day, and more than 50% of the people only manage to get one meal every three days. In this horrific situation of genocide, the birth rate has dropped by 50%. The few trucks that are allowed to enter Gaza with relief supplies often carry flour mixed with deadly chemicals, and when the oppressed Muslims of Gaza line up to collect this poisonous food, Israeli forces target them with bullets and bombs, killing many dozens of people every day.

The Ameer of Tanzeem-e-Islami said that how can Muslim countries talk about establishing relations with the illegal Zionist state of Israel through the Abraham Accords in light of this brutal genocide? Are those Muslim countries that are supplying crude oil, electricity, and gas for Israel's tanks, warplanes, and drones no longer fearful that on the Day of Judgment, they will be questioned about helping the oppressor in the genocide of their Muslim brethren?

Shujauddin Shaikh said that if Muslim countries still do not correct their course and fail to take practical steps to stop the oppression of the illegitimate Zionist state of Israel, assist the Palestinian Muslims, and protect the sanctity of Al-Aqsa Mosque, then further humiliation in this world and severe punishment in the Hereafter await them. May Allah (SWT) grant Islamic zeal and courage to Muslim rulers and those in power. Ameen!
