Demanding an immediate halt to the Israeli aggression in Palestine, Prime Minister (PM) Sheikh Hasina blasted the "world conscience" and the country's human rights organisations for their silent role in this regard, reports BSS.
"I wonder how those who always cry for a single murder in the country remain silent in the Israeli atrocities on the Palestinians. Nobody talks anything about the brutal killing of women, children and common people in Palestine," she said with deep resentment.
"Doesn't it violate their human rights and doesn't their life have any value? ...didn't have they the right to live?" she posed a question.
Sheikh Hasina said this while delivering her introductory speech at a meeting of the Awami League Central Working Committee (ALCWC) held at her official residence Ganobhaban Monday.
The PM said the Israeli genocide on innocent Palestinians must be stopped immediately and urged the "world conscience" and Muslim Ummah to be vocal against it.
"The way the Palestinian brothers and sisters, especially the children, are attacked and killed by Israeli military can never be accepted. We strongly protest and condemn this mass killing," she said.
Sheikh Hasina also reiterated her government's solidarity with the Palestinians, saying, "We remain beside them and would remain in future."
She said it is not possible for any Muslim to accept such "holi khela" in the holy month of Ramadan. "This is just a heinous crime," she said.
In this connection, the PM said that the Bangladesh government has already condemned the Israeli atrocities on Palestine from the cabinet meeting.
Highlighting the violent and destructive acts of BNP -Jamaat nexus in the name of resisting January 5 polls, the prime minister said they torched buses, trucks and auto-rickshaws, dug roads, uprooted rail tracks and felled trees.
