Editorial: Liberation

• In five months, 30,000 Palestinians from Gaza have been killed by Israeli bombardments.
• A majority of victims are women and children, with some Hamas members also included.
• The massacre by Hamas in Israel on October 7th must be remembered and condemned.
• Efforts should be focused on freeing the Israeli hostages held by Hamas.
• The treatment of Palestinian civilians in Gaza is unacceptable.
• Protests are growing worldwide, and the situation in Palestine could impact the US Presidential Election.
• There is an immediate urgency to negotiate a truce and a prisoner and hostage exchange.
• Negotiations should project a future for Gaza with the Palestinians.

Conclusion: The current situation is unsustainable and requires swift intervention to prevent further bloodshed. A negotiated future for Gaza that involves the Palestinians must be envisaged.
