JAKARTA - ‘ Al-Aqsa &rsquo Flood Operation; launched by the Al-Qassam Izzuddin Brigade, the Hamas military wing, since Saturday, October 7 entered its second day. According to the Aljazeera website, about 400 Israelis were killed and more than 2,000 injured. Meanwhile, the Palestinian Ministry of Health announced that the death toll of Palestinians from Israeli bombardment of the Gaza Strip was around 313 people, including 20 children, and another 1,990 were injured. Responding to the heated tension and conflict, Fadli Zon, Chairman of the Indonesian House of Representatives' Inter-Parliamentary Cooperation Agency (BKSAP), asked all parties to be objective and fair in giving statements. "How do we defuse violence that can cause civilian casualties on both sides. What is happening now is due to the silence of the international world and the United Nations over the oppression that Israel has imposed on the Palestinian people and land," said Fadli Zon in an electronic message received in Jakarta, Sunday, October 8. “We cannot call Hamas terrorists. The Hamas invasion of Israel is a result of the continuous Israeli occupation of the Al-Aqsa Mosque, annexation of Palestinian soil, provocation of anti-Palestinian sentiment, continued widespread blockade and isolation of the Gaza Strip since 2006 which has caused a very severe humanitarian crisis. This is the general picture,” said Fadli Zon. The deputy chairman of Gerindra also gave an example of Israel's crimes throughout 2023. According to the United Nations since early 2023, Israel has killed nearly 300 Palestinians in the West Bank. Likewise, the provocation of the invasion of about 4,000 Israeli settlers of the Al-Aqsa Mosque complex during last June. "Unfortunately, the international community has not taken any concrete steps, including the United Nations. This is important to be reminded," he stressed. Fadli Zon said what is currently happening is clearly a signal of the failure of the international community including the United Nations, major countries, and the weak enforcement of rule-based world order. So far, various Israeli crimes have been left by the global community including the United Nations. UN resolutions are constantly violated by Israel. "So it is not surprising that the Palestinian people in Gaza are using their right to resistance to return to their homeland. This is like our fighters used to fight against the Dutch colonialists. The Palestinian people feel global injustice, ” he said. Fadli Zon also regretted the response of several Western countries that tended to side with Israel. The “Respon shown by several major countries such as the US and UK are very pro Israel. This of course will not solve the root of the problem. If you want to lower the tension of conflict there, big countries must be fair and neutral,” his advice. On the other hand, Fadli Zon said that the DPR always voiced its support for Palestinian independence in various parliamentary forums. “We will continue to provide support to Palestine, including at the World Parliament General Assembly in Luanda, Angola, October 23. We will ask the world to be fair and objective towards the Palestinian people, ” he concluded.
