“Stop the bombs and save lives!”.
Mourners attend the funeral of the Israeli man Sagiv Ben Svi, killed by Hamas militants while attending a music festival, at a cemetery in Holon, central Israel, Thursday, Oct. 26, 2023. More than 1,400 people were killed and over 200 taken captive in an multi-front attack by the militant group that rules Gaza on Oct. 7.– “Stop the bombs and save lives!” the Palestinian ambassador pleaded at an emotional U.N. meeting Thursday on the war in Gaza.
On another key issue — the more than 220 hostages taken from Israel — Iran’s foreign minister said Hamas is ready to release civilian prisoners to the Islamic Republic, and he said the international community must take responsibility for releasing 6,000 Palestinian prisoners held in Israel. But Riyad Mansour, the Palestinian U.N. ambassador, said 70% of those killed in Gaza were children and women. “Is this the war some of you are defending? Can this war be defended? These are crimes. This is barbarism,” he said.
Jordan’s Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi, speaking on behalf of the 22-nation Arab Group, spoke emotionally of children dying under the rubble of homes destroyed by Israeli precision bombs, and some still alive and trapped with no equipment to pull them out. “The parents can still hear them. They talk to them helplessly, knowing that they are running out of air and are slowly dying,” he said.
“Many among us believe that they are helping Israel by supporting its war,” he said. “They are not. Instead of sending weapons to Israel, send delegations to open an immediate and viable path to peace. This is how they can help Israel.”
