**New Delhi, March 19, 2025** – India expressed deep concern on Wednesday over the escalating violence in Gaza following the resumption of Israeli airstrikes. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) issued a statement calling for the immediate release of all hostages and the sustained supply of humanitarian aid to the Palestinian territory.
The renewed conflict follows Israel’s decision to end a fragile ceasefire with Hamas, brokered in January. The Hamas-run health ministry reported over 400 deaths as a result of the latest Israeli bombing. The MEA statement emphasized the urgent need for humanitarian assistance to reach those affected by the violence. The situation remains volatile, raising concerns about the future of peace negotiations.
