President Nangolo Mbumba has welcomed the ceasefire announced by the State of Qatar, marking a significant and overdue moment for the people of Gaza, who have endured immense suffering since October 7, 2023.

“I welcome the ceasefire announced by the State of Qatar, which marks an extremely significant and overdue moment for the occupied people of Gaza who have endured agonizing misery. Since the 7th of October 2023, the people of Gaza have experienced gruesome atrocities leading to the loss of tens of thousands of innocent lives, untold destruction of civilian infrastructure, and flagrant violations of international humanitarian law.

The complete ceasefire is an opportunity for the people of Gaza to return to their land and start the process of rebuilding and reconstruction of their land. More importantly, I hope that the ceasefire will open a new opportunity for enduring peace in the Middle East,” said President Mbumba
