Maldives Urges Immediate Arms Embargo on Israel to ‘Stop Genocide in Gaza’
The Maldives has urged the international community to impose an immediate arms embargo on Israel to stop the genocide in Gaza. Chargé d'affaires Ambassador Dr Ali Naseer Mohamed made the plea at the UN General Assembly plenary meeting on the 'Use of the Veto'. He stated that the UN Security Council veto on February 20 gave Israel a license to kill, referencing the February 29 incident where over 100 Palestinian civilians were killed. He implored the Security Council to intervene and hold Israel accountable for war crimes. The Gaza health ministry reported at least 30,717 Palestinians killed and 72,156 wounded since October 7. The Maldives called for decisive action beyond rhetoric.
