Nasrallah
The Communist Party of India (CPI) voiced serious concern over the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah by Israeli forces, viewing it as a dangerous escalation in the region. The ongoing conflict has resulted in the deaths of over 43,000 Palestinians and massive displacement in Gaza. CPI warns this event could provoke further retaliation from Hezbollah, destabilizing the Middle East and risking wider conflict. They call for an immediate ceasefire from Israel and advocate for a UN-backed two-state solution as a means to achieve peace. CPI encourages demonstrations against Israeli aggression to express solidarity with Palestine and Lebanon.

CPI expresses its grave concern over the assassination of Hassan Nasrallah

The Communist Party of India (CPI) expresses its grave concern over the assassination of Hassan Nasrallah, leader of Hezbollah, by Israeli forces. This act represents a significant escalation in an already volatile region. Since October 7, 2023, more than 43,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza, including over 16,000 children, and nearly 2 million Gazans have been displaced. Hezbollah, as a resistance movement, has always supported the just cause of Palestine and resisted Israel’s ongoing aggression against Lebanon.

The assassination of Hassan Nasrallah is likely to incite retaliatory strikes, further inflaming tensions between Hezbollah, Israel, and neighboring countries. It will undoubtedly destabilize the Middle East, drawing nations into a broader and potentially full-scale conflict.

CPI condemns Israelโ€™s barbaric attack on Lebanon and calls upon Israel to immediately cease its dangerous aggression against the people of Lebanon and Gaza. The CPI believes that only UN proposed two-state solution can bring peace to Middle East. Peace cannot be achieved through military strikes or assassinations. Dialogue, diplomacy, and firm initiatives for an independent Palestinian homeland, with pre-1967 borders and East Jerusalem as its capital, are the only viable paths to resolve the ongoing crisis.

In expressing its unwavering solidarity with the people of Palestine and Lebanon, CPI calls upon the government of India not to adopt any pro-US or Israeli stance. Instead, India should condemn the warmongering policies of the US and Israel to strengthen its respectful position in the Global South.

CPI calls upon all its units to organize demonstrations on October 7, along with other Left parties, to oppose Israeli aggression and reaffirm our solidarity with the people of Palestine and Lebanon.
