India said the loss of civilian lives in Israeli air strikes on the southern Gaza city of Rafah was "shocking", and called for respect for international humanitarian law in the ongoing conflict. Local officials in Gaza said 45 people were killed in air strikes on May 26, most of whom were sheltering in tents.
"The heartbreaking deaths of civilians in the displacement camp in Rafah are a matter of deep concern for us," "We have consistently called for the protection of the civilian population and respect for international humanitarian law in the ongoing conflict," said External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal. And after this attack, problems are continuously increasing for Israel as many western countries such as Spain, Ireland and Norway have recognised Palestine. Reacting to this, Mr Jaiswal said India had done so in the 1980s. India supports the two-state solution, which includes the establishment of a sovereign, viable and independent Palestinian state within recognised and mutually agreed borders.
However, the UN has not yet recognised Palestine and gradually, after the recognition from the world, pressure will be exerted on the western countries as well, mainly on the 5 Eyes countries which have not yet recognised Palestine.
After the air strike by Israel in Rafah, a trend started on social media "All Eyes on Rafah" in which the victims of Rafah got a huge support from India. And as always, both sides now resolve this without weapons. But for now, the circumstances are neither in favour of Israel nor in favour of Palestine because until Hamas does not leave the captives, Israel will keep attacking Gaza. And the more time this war takes, the more harmful it will be for Israel because the circumstances are slowly turning against Israel and there is a high possibility that Israel will get isolated after this war.
