We must stop funding and aiding Genocide in Palestine The publication of the names of 710 Palestinian newborn babies killed by Israeli forces during the ongoing war on Gaza is a stark reminder of the tragic loss of innocent lives. With over 16,700 Palestinian children killed since October 7th, and a total of 41,226 Palestinian deaths recorded, the loss of life is staggering. While the situation is complex, the killing of civilians, especially newborns and children, is unacceptable and a violation of international law. It is imperative that steps be taken to end the violence and prioritize the protection of innocent lives, especially the most vulnerable. A cessation of hostilities and a commitment to peaceful negotiations is crucial. Providing aid and support to those impacted, particularly children who have lost families and homes, should be a priority. The international community must use its influence to facilitate dialogue, de-escalate tensions, and work towards a just and lasting resolution to this conflict that upholds human rights and human dignity.
