The government should play a pivotal role in leading the invocation of the United National General Assembly (UNGA) resolution 377 (A) among UN member states to halt the ongoing and distressing genocide in Gaza by demanding an urgent and resolute response from the international community.

Centre For Human Rights Research and Advocacy (Centhra) founder and chairman Azril Mohd Amin said Resolution 377 (A), commonly referred to as the "Uniting for Peace" resolution, held significant weight in situations where the UN Security Council, due to a lack of consensus among its five permanent members, falters in its fundamental responsibility to uphold global peace and security.
