Subject: Urgent Appeal to Call for an Immediate Ceasefire in Gaza

Dear [MP's Name],

I hope this letter finds you in good health.

I am a member of your constituency, and I am writing to implore you to do everything in your power for Singapore to call upon Israel for an immediate ceasefire to the war in Gaza.

I am deeply concerned and outraged about the blatant and ruthless act of genocide that is currently taking place there, and I believe it is important for Singapore to take a strong and principled stand against the atrocities and human rights violations occurring in Palestine.

At the point of writing, Israel has cut off food, water and electricity in Gaza for at least five days. Palestinians are running out of drinking water and are on the brink of mass starvation. Israel has also stopped humanitarian aid from coming in to help innocent civilians, and even hospitals have been told to evacuate - an impossible request that only guarantees the death of hundreds, if not thousands more innocent and injured Palestinians, including children and newborn babies. Over 423,000 Palestinians have been displaced since 7 October 2023, and at least 2,670 Palestinians have been killed, including at least 600 children. More than 9,600 people have been injured, and the casualties are only expected to rise.

We urgently need our leaders in Singapore to speak out now. 

Palestinians in Gaza have no way out. This is a genocide happening in front of our eyes and world leaders need to strongly condemn Israel's illegal and inhumane war crimes. Israel has an army, navy and nuclear weapons; Gaza does not even have an army. This is not a war by any means. This is a clear violation of international law.

The situation has escalated to a point where it cannot be ignored any longer. As a citizen of Singapore, I urge you, as my elected representative, to use your influence and voice within the Parliament to advocate for immediate action from our government and the international partners to put an end to the senseless violence.

I appreciate your attention to this matter and trust in your commitment to upholding the values of justice and humanity. I kindly request that you keep me informed about any actions taken or initiatives pursued in response to this urgent appeal.

Thank you for your time.

Sincerely,
