The Indian government should cease all ties with Israel that implicate it in the "ongoing genocide" in Gaza, an Indian human rights group has said, referencing a recent report that an Indian company had sent combat drones to Israel for potential use in Gaza, according to Middle East Eye.

In a statement, the Human Rights Forum (HRF) said it was outraged by both India's feeble diplomatic response to Israel's campaign in Gaza as well as its willingness to continue trading military hardware that may contribute to the devastating scenes unfolding in the besieged territory.

"We demand that the Indian government cancel, with immediate effect, all such deals with Israel. We are daily witness to the deliberate slaughter of Palestinians, many of them women and children," the statement read.

Shamefully, India has till date not rescinded existing business deals with Israel nor has it outrightly and clearly condemned Israel for its inhumanity against the Palestinians," the statement read.
