KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 8 (Bernama) — The government is prepared to consider a proposal for a second wave of humanitarian missions to Gaza through the Rafah border crossing in Egypt.
Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim said the government, in principle, has pledged its support for any humanitarian effort to assist the people of Gaza.
“We have already attempted (to break Israel’s blockade of Gaza) by sea, and now there is a proposal (to go through the Rafah border), which deserves consideration.
“Once the tabling of Budget 2026 is completed this week, on Monday and Tuesday, we will call Sani (Datuk Dr Sani Araby Abdul Alim Araby) and Nuri (Muhammad Nadir Al-Nuri Kamaruzaman), along with other colleagues, to discuss strategies for the Rafah mission,” he said.
Anwar was speaking at the ‘Himpunan Solidariti Bersama Gaza: Gelombang Malaysia, Palestin Merdeka’ event at Axiata Arena, Bukit Jalil, here to demonstrate Malaysia’s support for the people of Palestine.
