SINGAPORE — Singapore's government agencies on Thursday (Nov 2) reminded foreigners working or living in the country to not use it as a platform to further their political causes, amid the ongoing war between Israel and militant group Hamas.

A picture taken from the Israeli side of the border with the Gaza Strip on Nov 2, 2023, shows smoke billowing above northern Gaza amid ongoing battles between Israel and the Palestinian Hamas movement.

A joint advisory by MOM, the Ministry of Home Affairs and Internal Security Department reiterated Singapore's zero-tolerance approach against extremism, violence or terrorism. "Doing so is an offence and punishable under Singapore law. Offenders may be banned from working in Singapore," the advisory read.
