Jakarta (B2B) - Palestina melalui duta besarnya untuk Indonesia, Fariz Mehdawi mengucapkan terima kasih atas dukungan yang diberikan oleh masyarakat Indonesia terhadap negaranya yang selama ini masih dijajah negara Israel.
"Terima kasih atas segala dukungan dari rakyat Indonesia," kata Fariz Mehdawi setelah menghadiri acara pelantikan Wakil Menlu RI Dino Patti Djalal di Kompleks Istana Kepresidenan, Jakarta, Senin.
Menurut Fariz, terkait dengan serangan Israel ke Jalur Gaza di Palestina yang menewaskan banyak warga sipil, termasuk perempuan dan anak-anak, pihaknya bekerja sama tidak hanya dengan Indonesia tetapi banyak negara.
Kerja sama itu, ujar dia, adalah agar berbagai negara menekan dengan kuat rezim Israel agar menghentikan serangannya.
Ia mengingatkan bahwa saat ini ribuan anak-anak terpaksa hidup menderita di luar tempat tinggalnya dan juga telah banyak warga yang dievakuasi ke Mesir untuk mendapatkan pengobatan yang layak.
"Kami butuh PBB untuk bertindak," katanya.
Pemerintah Indonesia mengecam aksi militer yang dilancarkan Israel ke wilayah Gaza, Palestina, baru-baru ini, demikian siaran pers dari Kementerian Luar Negeri Indonesia.
Jakarta (B2B) - Palestines ambassador to Indonesia Fariz Mehdaawi expressed gratitude to the Indonesian people here on Monday for their support to his country, which has so far been oppressed by Israel.
"Thanks for all the support that the Indonesian people have provided," he said after attending the inauguration of Dino Patti Djalal as the vice minister of foreign affairs.
He said with regard to dealing with Israeli attacks on Gaza Strip, which has resulted in the deaths of many citizens including women and children, not only Indonesia but also many other countries have cooperated.
The cooperation, he said, is aimed at pressurizing Israel to end its attacks.
He said currently thousands of children are suffering, while many others had to be evacuated to Egypt to obtain adequate medical treatment.
"We need UNs action," he added.
The Indonesian government has condemned Israels recent military action in Gaza. "Indonesia condemns the Israeli military action in Gaza, which has claimed a lot of civilian and innocent lives and created a new obstacle to create conducive conditions for peaceful process," Indonesias foreign minister Marty Natalegawa said in a press statement on Thursday.
