In a recent tweet on February 27, 2026, Prime Minister Narendra Modi reiterated his stance on the Israel-Palestine conflict, asserting that India remains committed to supporting Israel while also advocating for Palestinian rights. He stated, "We must ensure that our support for Israel does not overshadow our commitment to peace and justice for Palestine." This statement comes amidst ongoing criticism of his previous visit to Israel, where he emphasized a united front against terrorism. The humanitarian crisis in Gaza continues to escalate, with reports indicating that the death toll has now surpassed 80,000 Palestinians since October 2023. Modi's dual approach aims to navigate the complexities of international relations while addressing domestic concerns about the humanitarian impact of the conflict.
