He said the coalition would carry out a campaign for two months during which it would organise discources, talks, and charity sales, and raise funds to the tune of RM20 million for Aman Palestin Berhad.
Muhammad Fauzi said the coalition would also launch a campaign among the Islamic community by organising activities such as fasting and cost-saving campaigns to foster an understanding of the hardships faced by the people of Palestine.
"As Muslims, let’s participate and make a success of these campaigns. I also urge individuals and organisations to join the Solidarity Coalition for the Liberation of Palestine,” he said.
The clashes in Palestine between Hamas, the governing authority in Gaza, and the Israeli regime since Oct 7 have left thousands dead and injured on both sides.- BERNAMA
