Sri Lanka will give its fullest support to the UN Secretary General’s program to stop conflicts and establish peace in Gaza, President Ranil Wickremesinghe said.

“We, too, are committed to giving our full support to the activities of the Secretary-General of the United Nations Council in resolving this matter and bringing peace to the region,” President Ranil Wickremesinghe said while addressing the National Milad-Un Nabi Celebration held at Musali National School Stadium in Mannar on October 22.

Speaking further about the Palestinian issue, the President said “We heard that 20 food trucks have been sent to Gaza, but we must question whether this is enough.”

“The Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip are trapped due to the Israeli-Hamas conflict, and we cannot ignore their suffering. We call for the necessary food to be provided to these people, not only from Israel but also from Egypt, along with access to clean water.”

“While the Israel-Hamas conflict continues, it’s essential to ensure that ordinary Palestinian people are not victimized in this struggle. Arab countries, including Egypt, are taking steps to address this issue, and other nations are showing their support. We, too, are committed to giving our full support to the activities of the Secretary-General of the United Nations Council in resolving this matter and bringing peace to the region. There is a genuine need for a Palestinian government.”
