Human rights constantly being violated in Palestine: PM

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has strongly condemned the Israel’s brutal attacks on Palestine people.

The Prime Minister was speaking at a general discussion on a proposal on Israeli attack on innocent Palestine people on Monday.

Ruling Awami League lawmaker and former Foreign Minister Abul Hassan Mahmood Ali placed the proposal that says the opinion of the Parliament is that Bangladesh National Parliament strongly condemns the brutal genocide carried out by Israel on the Palestinian people and strongly demands that this killing be stopped.

“Human rights are talked about, but here (Palestine) human rights are constantly being violated. It must be stopped. We don't want this killing and war,” Sheikh Hasina said.

“Israel's brutal killings in Palestine have caused an extreme disaster of human rights. This Parliament calls on all the conscientious people, states and institutions of the world to come forward to protect human rights in Palestine and calls upon the Muslim Ummah of the world to come forward effectively to protect the Palestinian people and establish their just, independent and sovereign state,” reads the proposal.

Supporting the independent state of Palestine, Sheikh Hasina, also Leader of the House, urged to accept the justified demands of Palestine.

“We want the Palestinians to get back their state,” she said.

The Premier said that human rights are being violated continuously in Palestine, and women and children are the most affected.

She mentioned that very often the western countries gave sermons about human rights, but Palestine people are living in very inhuman condition.
