Artists Gather in Mumbai for Open Mic Event

An open mic event in Mumbai marked 300 days since the October 7 Hamas attack, allowing artists to express solidarity and resistance through spoken word and art. Among the attendees was veteran actor Dolly Thakore, who honored the victims of the conflict in Gaza. Concurrently, UNRWA's Commissioner General criticized the ongoing violations of the Geneva Conventions in Gaza, highlighting the plight of civilians amidst the conflict. Reports indicate that both Israeli forces and Palestinian groups have disregarded humanitarian laws, resulting in significant casualties. In the backdrop of these tensions, Italian politician Giuseppe Conte condemned Israel's actions, particularly the recent bombing of a school, calling for international accountability for what he termed systematic extermination. This multi-faceted crisis continues to draw global condemnation and calls for intervention.
