INTERNATIONAL:
The ferocious conflict which has erupted with the astounding Hamas attacks in southern Israel and the Israeli counteroffensive with the savage bombardment of Gaza constitutes a new chapter in the ongoing history of the occupation and the resistance to it by the Palestinian people.
Report on Certain Political Developments
(Adopted at the Central Committee Meeting held on October 29-31, 2022)
RESOLUTION
Solidarity with Palestine
(Adopted by the 23rd Congress on April 8, 2022)
The 23rd Congress of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) reiterates its solidarity with the people of Palestine, who have been fighting for their homeland for more than seven decades.
We are herewith releasing the full text of the letter addressed by CPI(M) General Secretary, Sitaram Yechury to Prime Minister Narendra Modi lodging protest against India’s abstention at the UNHRC on the Resolution on the Palestinian issue. This letter was sent by mail today.
The Polit Bureau of the CPI (M) denounces the Israeli attacks on Palestinians. The air raids carried out by Israel on the Gaza strip led to the death of many Palestinian citizens.
The announcement of a “strategic partnership” with Israel in the joint statement, which is a strategic alliance, amounts to a virtual abandonment of the Palestinian cause.
The 1.7 million people of Gaza continue to remain under a brutal siege, with the Israeli stranglehold affecting even basic necessities such as food and medicine. Reports available indicate that hospitals are running out of medicine. Power and water supplies have been cut to the Gaza residents.
