NGOs urge Finland to recognize Palestine amidst ongoing crisis

A coalition of non-governmental organizations is calling on Finland to officially recognize the state of Palestine, emphasizing that immediate action is essential to achieving a lasting peace in the region. The plea comes amidst continued humanitarian crises in Gaza and the longstanding Israeli-Egyptian blockade.

The NGOs highlight several urgent priorities: securing a sustainable ceasefire, delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza, and lifting the illegal blockade imposed by Israel and Egypt.
