The Islamic Society of North America condemns in the strongest terms the horrific attack on Rafah, where a designated safe zone with displaced Palestinians was bombed by an Israeli strike. The latest reports indicate that 46 people have been killed and 110 injured in this senseless act of violence. Our hearts go out to the victims and their families during this tragic time.

It is imperative that all eyes are on Rafah right now. We urgently call for an immediate ceasefire to prevent further loss of innocent lives and to allow for the necessary humanitarian assistance to reach those affected by this devastating attack.

We urge the international community to take swift action to address the ongoing violence in the region and to work towards a lasting peace that respects the rights and dignity of all people. Our thoughts and prayers are with the people of Rafah as they navigate this difficult and challenging situation.

May peace and justice prevail in Rafah and beyond.
