Qatar Foundation and Education Above All Foundation Chairperson HH Sheikha Moza bint Nasser has called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza and urged humanitarian aid to be allowed into the region.

On Instagram, she shared a picture of several body bags of Palestinians who were killed during Israel’s bombing of the Al Ahli Hospital in central Gaza.

She shared a heartfelt note along with the picture.

“When Palestinian people are subjected to mass murder, mere words of condemnation become empty rhetoric, falling short even of silence. The world was appalled and horror-struck as it bore witness to Israel’s attack on the Al Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza, which killed almost 500 Palestinian civilians in just one strike. It was a scene to bring shame to all humanity,” she wrote on her Instagram page.

“Perhaps seeing the images of this massacre might provoke the consciences of those who choose to look away from the crimes committed by the Israeli occupation forces in Gaza. There is no option but an immediate ceasefire and the provision of humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza, and any delay renders the international community complicit in this atrocity,” she wrote.

Palestinians mourned the deaths of hundreds of people after Israeli occupation forces bombed the Al Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza City on Tuesday evening.

Protests also erupted spontaneously in different major cities around the Middle East and North Africa, with some escalating into clashes with security forces.
