NIAC Statement on Gaza Ceasefire Agreement

Washington, DC – The National Iranian American Council issued the following statement amid reports that Israel and Hamas have agreed to a ceasefire to halt the slaughter in Gaza:

“A ceasefire to the brutal war in Gaza that has taken at least tens of thousands of innocent lives is long overdue and we hope it will be implemented in full, providing relief for the besieged and starved population of Gaza and freedom for all long-suffering hostages. We note the positive contributions of the Trump transition team to securing this diplomatic breakthrough, and hope they will follow through to ensure it is implemented and address the desperate humanitarian situation in Gaza.

Hopefully this augurs a positive trajectory for the incoming administration’s diplomatic positioning in the Middle East. Ending the war is the right thing to do. We hope this breakthrough can be lasting and close the dark chapter of war that has already spilled across borders.”
