Srinagar, May 18: Heeding to the call of Joint Resistance leadership (JRL), Jammu and Kashmir Liberation Front on Friday staged a protest at Lal Chowk in Srinagar against the killings of Palestinians in Gaza by Israeli forces.
Soon after Friday prayers, scores of the party workers led by JKLF vice chairman advocate Bashir Ahmad Butt gathered at Madeena Chowk and staged a protest against the killings of Palestinians.
In his address, Butt said that the “bloodbath in Palestine is a genocide that is supported by the international community, especially the US.”
He said what is happening in Palestine is a human tragedy but international community seems to support this human catastrophe by maintaining a criminal silence over it.
He said the failure of the international community in resolving disputes and stopping massacres of innocent people in Palestine, Kashmir and other disputed lands can only be termed as worst kind of apathy.
Meanwhile, JKLF chairman Muhammad Yasin Malik, who is under detention of police since yesterday, while condemning the killings of Palestinians by Israel, and said “international community has failed humans and humanity in Palestine, Kashmir and many other disputed lands and people.”
“Instead of resolving the long pending disputes like Palestine and Kashmir, international community has chosen to prolong and complicate these issues which confront billions of humans across the globe,” Malik said.
