In a post on X, formerly Twitter, K T Rama Rao, popularly called KTR, said, "The news about death of hundreds of civilians due to the bombing of a hospital in Gaza is truly distressing. It's heartbreaking to learn that around 4,500 people have lost their lives in this conflict over the past two weeks. The actions of both parties are difficult to justify and are creating a severe humanitarian crisis."

KTR said that he would stand in support of the call for an immediate ceasefire and the provision of essential humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza. "It is crucial for all parties involved to distance themselves from indiscriminate violence. Instead, the focus should be on prioritizing dialogue and diplomacy as the means to fulfill the aspirations of the Palestinian people while also addressing Israel's security concerns," he said.

Expressing deep concern over the happenings and uncertainties in Gaza, the Telangana Minister urged the United Nations to intervene immediately and work towards an amicable resolution.

Meanwhile, world leaders have called for immediate cessation of hostilities in the Middle East. US President Biden asked Congress for financial aid to Israel which was under terrorist attacks by Hamas. In his Oval Office address to the nation after returning from Israel, Biden said the US and its allies are working to build a better future wherein the Middle East is more stable, better connected to its neighbours through innovative projects like the Indian Middle East Europe rail corridor.
