The Member States of the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America – People’s Trade Treaty (ALBA-TCP) strongly condemn the military attack of the Israeli army of the northern Gaza Strip, perpetrated on February 29, 2024, where over a hundred innocent people were killed and at least 760 wounded, while waiting for the aid convoys carrying food at the Al-Nabulsi Roundabout area.

The Bolivarian Alliance deeply regrets this new attack, which constitutes an unprecedented massacre and adds to the endless suffering to which the Palestinian people have been systematically subjected.

ALBA-TCP expresses its solidarity with the Palestinian people and demands the fulfillment of the United Nations (UN) resolutions for the establishment of the two States, in the pre-1967 borders.

The Alliance reiterates its call to the international community to cease fire immediately in Gaza; to stop the genocide against the civilian population, which violates the principles and purposes of the Charter of the United Nations, International Law, and International Humanitarian Law; and urges the accountability for such painful crimes against humanity.
