The irony of Russia’s ceasefire call

Dear Editor,

A news item on an international channel proclaims boldly ‘ Russia’s UN ambassador calls for ceasefire in Israel-Hamas conflict”(Al Jazeera Oct 14).  What irony! Calling for a ceasefire (as he should) while his country continues its offensive against a sovereign nation, for over five hundred days and counting.  The irony of all ironies!

Sincerely,

Shamshun Mohamed
