Thousands
of Malaysians thronged Dataran Merdeka in
the federal capital today in support of the "Save the Children of Gaza'
rally.
Organised by two NGOs, Viva Palestina Malaysia (VPM)
and Aqsa Syarif, the three-hour peaceful rally was to protest the continued Israeli-
violence against the Palestinians.
The
two organisations will send a memorandum to the American and the Egyptian
embassies on Monday.
They
are also urging Egypt to fully open Rafah border crossing to enable them to
channel more aid to the Palestinians. Aqsa Syarif, VPM and several foreign NGOs
had lined-up 23 trucks of medicine and surgical materials worth RM2.5 million
for Gaza.
The
memorandum includes urging America to stop Israel from attacking the innocent
Palestinians. The latest Israeli
onslaught has killed over 1,400
Palestinians mostly innocent women and children.

The
Tel Aviv regime had also targeted public utilities in Gaza including hospitals,
schools and over 10,000 houses.
A
Bernama source in Gaza said he was fine “but things are so bad”.
“My
sister’s house was evacuated, it is good so far and thanks very much for being
kind with me…just pray for us please,” he said in a Facebook chat this evening.
“Humanity
is killed in Gaza,” he said of the Israeli aggression including cutting off
electricity supply.
“We
are holding up, we believe Israel will be forced to lift the blockade
“Please
onpass my regards to all Bernama friends,” he said.

When
told of a Bernama story today denying Israeli propaganda that Hamas members
were trained in Malaysia, he said:
“Yeah
I know about this fake story…they just do not like to see you supporting us.”
In
its press statement on the Israeli false accusation to Malaysia, Hamas, which administers the densely populated
Gaza, said:
With regards to the
false reports that were published by several Israeli media outlets which
claimed that Hamas members were trained in Malaysia on carrying out parachute
attacks, we comment the following:
These lies are a sort
of media misleading created by Israeli intelligence and aim at distorting the
image of growing International solidarity with our People and just cause, at
the time that we are facing war crimes and massacres by the Zionist war
machine.
Hamas movement firmly
denies these Israeli unfounded accusations, and stresses the following:
First: These Israeli
lies will neither succeed in distorting the image of the support and solidarity
adopted by Malaysian government and people, nor affecting the Malaysian stance
that rejects the Israeli aggression and terrorism.
Second: Hamas highly
appreciates and values the brave stance and the humanitarian support carried
out by Malaysia at the official and popular levels, and its stand by the side
of Palestinian people and their rights.
Third: The Israeli
creation of such accusations is an attempt to divert the attention from the
ongoing massacres and genocide committed by the Israeli army against the
Palestinian civilians, children, women and elderly.
Forth: It's the noble
duty of the Ummah and the free world to offer all possible support to the
Palestinian people in facing the occupier, as it's the right of the
Palestinians to search for all possible means to face the Israeli occupation
and counter its aggression, which is guaranteed by international laws and
conventions.
