MAPIM (Malaysian Consultative Council of Islamic Organizations) is strongly condemning Israel for failing to implement the humanitarian protocol agreed upon in the ceasefire, which was meant to address the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza.
We also strongly criticize the U.S. complicity in Israel’s actions and calls on international actors to ensure immediate and unconditional aid delivery.
Amid the ongoing and worsening humanitarian crisis in the Gaza Strip, and despite the clear agreements outlined in the humanitarian protocol signed as part of the ceasefire agreement, the Israeli occupation has failed to uphold its commitments and has not implemented the provisions it signed. Instead, it continues to procrastinate and obstruct the entry of urgent humanitarian, relief, and shelter aid desperately needed by our Palestinian people in Gaza.
According to the humanitarian protocol, 60,000 caravans and 200,000 temporary tents were supposed to be delivered to Gaza to shelter the displaced Palestinian families whose homes, residential units, and entire neighborhoods were destroyed by the Israeli occupation. Additionally, 600 trucks loaded with aid and fuel were expected to enter Gaza daily, including 50 fuel and gas trucks and 4,200 trucks over seven days.
The protocol also stipulated the entry of humanitarian, medical, and civil defense equipment, the removal of rubble, the maintenance of infrastructure, and the operation of the power plant, along with the necessary equipment for rehabilitating humanitarian services in Gaza.
However, the Israeli occupation continues to place obstacles and delay implementation, exacerbating the humanitarian crisis and worsening the suffering of Gaza’s civilian population. This will have severe and unprecedented consequences.
We hold the Israeli occupation and the U.S. administration fully responsible for the dire consequences resulting from Israel’s failure to fulfill its commitments.
We call on the guaranteeing parties and international actors to assume their responsibilities effectively and exert serious pressure to ensure the immediate and unconditional implementation of the humanitarian protocol as agreed upon.
