Brazilian president says world can not 'remain indifferent' to Israel's genocide in Gaza

Brazil’s President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva has called on the international community to take a stand against Israel’s genocide in Gaza.
“We cannot remain indifferent to the genocide carried out by Israel in Gaza, the indiscriminate killing of innocent civilians and the use of hunger as a weapon of war,” Lula told the BRICS summit in Rio de Janeiro on Sunday.
The remarks came as ceasefire negotiations between Hamas and Israel resumed in Qatar. On Friday, Hamas confirmed it had delivered a “positive” response to the latest truce and prisoner swap proposal put forward by mediators.
Lula has been one of the most outspoken world leaders on the war, repeatedly condemning Israel’s actions in Gaza and pushing for a diplomatic solution.
