MALAYSIA STRONGLY CONDEMNS THE LATEST KILLING OF CIVILIANS IN GAZA

Malaysia strongly condemns the attack by Israel's forces in Gaza which resulted in the deaths of innocent civilians, including children and journalists.

The attack constitutes a grave violation of international humanitarian law and international human rights law, as well as a clear violation of the ceasefire agreement declared by United States President Donald J. Trump as part of his 20-point Peace Plan on 29 September 2025. Malaysia reiterates that all parties to the conflict are obliged to uphold international law. Attacks that result in the loss of civilian life and impede access to safety and essential services are unacceptable and undermine efforts towards de-escalation, peace, and stability.

Malaysia remains steadfast in its support for the Palestinian people's inalienable rights, including their right to self-determination and the establishment of a sovereign and independent State of Palestine based on pre-1967 borders, with East Jerusalem as its capital.

Malaysia reiterates its call for an immediate and sustained cessation of hostilities and for all parties to recommit to a return to meaningful negotiations toward a just and lasting peace.
