At UNHRC, India called for all parties to show extreme restraint
New Delhi: At a special session of the United Nations Human Rights Council (UNHRC) on Palestine, India has welcomed the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. The ceasefire was announced earlier this month after over 10 days of rocket firing and violence from both sides.
India said, “We welcome the diplomatic efforts of the international community and regional countries that have resulted in bringing ceasefire between Israel and armed groups in Gaza."
Notably, India did not directly refer to Hamas in its statement but mentioned them as "armed groups".
Egypt played an important role in the ceasefire and was the main channel of communication between Hamas and the West and Israel in bringing the present situation.
