The Appeal to act for immediate ceasefire and humanitarian assistance in Gaza

“Your Excellency, we, the poets, writers and artists of all nations of the world, are deeply concerned by the barbaric, inhuman and systematic attacks on the people of Palestine in Gaza by the Israeli occupation forces. Media reports and other independent sources have claimed that at least 33,482 Palestinians have been killed and 76,049 wounded since October 7, 2023. Women, children, medical service providers, journalists and humanitarian workers have been indiscriminately targeted. Homes, hospitals, schools and public spaces are demolished, and humanitarian assistance is blocked.

The people of Gaza have become prisoners in their own nation, and are deprived of food, water, shelter and health services. They are denied their basic rights to life and dignity. This act is a clear violation of international human rights and humanitarian laws. It is loud and clear that no countries and territories can be at peace when people in Gaza are subjected to brutal war and historical injustices. Though the United Nations officials also have repeatedly urged for the immediate cessation of this genocidal war, it is very unfortunate that the world governments have failed to make any resolution to this crisis.

As poets, writers, artists and humans, sharing the common home, planet Earth, we have a collective responsibility to bear witness to this heinous crime against humanity. We strongly condemn the atrocities committed by the Israeli forces and appeal that the right to life and dignity of the Palestinian people to be protected by all means and in all circumstances. We maintain that these conflicts should be resolved through peaceful means and mutual dialogues.

We urge that the inhumanity in Gaza must be recognized and the perpetrators must be made accountable. But, as an emergency response, we appeal Your Excellency for your positive action in forging a deal for immediate ceasefire between Israel and Gaza, and in mobilizing the international mechanisms to provide humanitarian reliefs to the people in Gaza, Warmest Regards”
