Sunghay, thank you for joining us.



**Sunghay:** Thank you for having me.



**Archyde:** The scale of loss in Gaza is truly staggering. Can you tell us more about the humanitarian situation on the ground?



**Sunghay:** The situation is desperate. We are seeing unimaginable suffering. Beyond the horrific death toll, there are countless injured, families torn apart, and a community struggling to cope with the overwhelming trauma. Hospitals are overwhelmed, essential supplies are dwindling, and the infrastructure has been decimated.



**Archyde:** Reports suggest that the conflict has emboldened some extremist groups, especially settlers in the West Bank. Can you elaborate on this?



**Sunghay:** Absolutely. While the focus has been on Gaza, there’s a worrying trend of escalating violence in the West Bank. The lack of accountability for previous violations by the IDF has created a climate of impunity, which emboldens extremist elements. this is deeply concerning. We need to see a clear commitment to upholding international law and protecting human rights for all.



**Archyde:** Diplomatic efforts are underway to broker a ceasefire. What are your hopes for these negotiations?



**Sunghay:** We desperately need an immediate ceasefire to provide a window for humanitarian aid and allow for a de-escalation of the violence. However, a ceasefire alone is not enough. We need a lasting solution that addresses the root causes of the conflict and ensures the safety and wellbeing of all people in the region. This requires a commitment to dialog, justice, and a genuine pursuit of peace.
