Cardigan Radio Calls for an End to the Genocide in Palestine

Published 26.05.2024. Cardigan Radio is raising its voice in the call to end the genocide unfolding in Palestine. The ongoing situation in Gaza and the West Bank has reached catastrophic levels, characterised by massive loss of civilian lives, destruction of infrastructure, and severe humanitarian crises.

Genocide

Multiple reports, including those from the UN and Amnesty International, have highlighted that Israel’s actions meet the criteria for genocide. Genocide, under international law, involves acts committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group.

Humanitarian Crisis and War Crimes

The Israeli blockade and relentless bombardment have led to dire conditions in Gaza. Hospitals, schools, and essential infrastructure have been targeted, leading to widespread death and suffering. Over 34,000 Palestinians have been killed, including a significant number of women and children. Mass graves have been discovered, with victims showing signs of execution-style killings​.

International Response

The international community is urged to take immediate and decisive actions to prevent further genocide. This includes imposing arms embargoes, ensuring the delivery of humanitarian aid, and holding perpetrators accountable through mechanisms like the International Criminal Court.

Cardigan Radio’s Stance

Cardigan Radio stands in solidarity with the Palestinian people and calls for an immediate end to the genocide. We urge our listeners and the international community to take action by advocating for policies that promote peace, justice, and human rights for all. The continuation of this violence is not just a failure of diplomacy but a grave injustice that must be stopped.
