India has demonstrated its leadership and influence in the region and the world, and its ability to contribute to the global efforts to address the challenges and opportunities in the Middle East.
The recent outbreak of violence between Israel and Hamas, the Palestinian militant group that controls the Gaza Strip, has once again brought to the fore the long-standing and complex conflict in the Middle East. The war, which was triggered by a series of terror attacks in Israel on October 7, has resulted in hundreds of casualties, mostly civilians, and a humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The international community, including the United Nations, has called for an immediate ceasefire and a peaceful resolution of the dispute. India, as a responsible and influential member of the global community, has also played a constructive role in backing the de-escalation of the situation and supporting the diplomatic efforts to end the hostilities.
India has a unique and balanced position on the Israel-Palestine issue, as it maintains friendly and strategic relations with both sides. India recognizes Israel as a sovereign state and a key partner in defence, trade, and technology. India also supports the legitimate aspirations of the Palestinian people for a state of their own, based on the two-state solution and the 1967 borders. India has been a consistent and vocal supporter of the Palestinian cause at various international forums and has extended humanitarian and developmental assistance to the people of Gaza.
India’s response to the current crisis has been guided by these principles and interests. India has strongly condemned the terror attacks in Israel and has expressed its solidarity with the victims and their families. India has also denounced the indiscriminate firing of rockets by Hamas into Israel and has urged both sides to exercise restraint and avoid civilian casualties. India has also expressed its deep concern over the alarming humanitarian situation in Gaza and has called for the immediate release of any hostages who may have been taken during the conflict. India has also provided humanitarian aid to Gaza and has pledged to continue its support for the reconstruction and development of the region.

India has shown that it can be a trusted and credible partner for both Israel and Palestine and a bridge-builder between them. India has also demonstrated its leadership and influence in the region and the world, and its ability to contribute to the global efforts to address the challenges and opportunities in the Middle East. India’s role in resolving the Israel-Hamas war is also a testament to India’s vision and values, and its aspiration to be a leading power in the 21st century.
