Following, the full text of the Communiqué:
“The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela expresses its strongest condemnation of the massacre carried out by the State of Israel when it bombed the Al Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza, causing the death of more than 500 people, including women, children and elders.
This inhuman and unjustifiable act, which is added to the long list of crimes committed in recent days against the civilian population in Gaza, constitutes a clear violation of Human Rights and International Humanitarian Law, and demonstrates, once again, the political of apartheid, aggression and extermination that the State of Israel has been perpetrating against the Palestinian people.
Venezuela reiterates its solidarity with the brotherly Palestinian people and their legitimate right to self-determination and the consolidation of a sovereign and independent State. Likewise, it calls on the international community to speak out forcefully against the genocide to which the population of Gaza is subjected and to demand the immediate cessation of Israeli aggression.
The Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela urges all States and international organizations to work together to demand a ceasefire and immediately put an end to these flagrant attacks on Human Rights, while making an urgent call for the immediate installation of a World Conference to restore the rights of the Palestinian people and determine responsibilities for these crimes against humanity.”
Caracas, October 17, 2023″.
