Foreign Minister Hasan Mahmud has urged the people and Islamic parties of the country to resist the BNP and Jamaat accusing them of becoming Israel's friends instead of uttering a single word in favour of the Palestinians, reports UNB.
"BNP and Jamaat have become friends of Israel. They have joined hands with Israel," he said while speaking at a protest rally at Central Shaheed Minar in the city on Thursday.
Bangabandhu Sangskritik Jote organised the rally protesting Israeli killings in Gaza.
In its staunch support to the Palestinian cause Bangladesh says Israel, through its denial of the Palestinian people's right to self-determination, has violated peremptory norms of international law.
These violations include persecution, racial discrimination, and apartheid against Palestinians, as well as the occupation, colonisation, and annexation of Palestinian land, according to Bangladesh position.
