18 January 2025

The Regional Network for Reconciliation and Forgiveness in the Arab region welcomes the ceasefire agreement reached in the Gaza Strip, considering it a significant step toward ending violence and protecting the lives of innocent civilians. This agreement reflects the steadfast will of the Palestinian people in resisting occupation and the efforts of Arab, Islamic, and international nations, as well as global supporters of the Palestinian cause. Furthermore, it opens the door to greater efforts to achieve a just and lasting peace.

The network commends all regional and international efforts that contributed to this agreement and emphasizes that the responsibility of the international community does not end with the ceasefire. Urgent humanitarian support must continue, alongside efforts to protect civilians and ensure the unimpeded delivery of aid.

The network underscores the importance of building on this agreement through launching comprehensive dialogue aimed at addressing the roots of the conflict. This would ensure the end of the occupation, justice for the Palestinian people, and their legitimate rights to freedom, dignity, and independence.

The Regional Network for Reconciliation and Forgiveness offers its full expertise and resources to support efforts to enhance stability and build peace in Gaza. It calls on all parties to fully commit to implementing the agreement and prioritize wisdom and peace over any new escalation.

The network reaffirms that lasting peace can only be achieved through justice, recognition of the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people, and ensuring a dignified and secure life free from violence and conflict.
