Wikimedian Nada Kareem22 emphasised in a Diff blog dated 22 January 2024 that she feels like Titanic violinists "while hearing bombings in the background". Contributors like her belong to this global knowledge-sharing movement and we stand in solidarity with them in this time of grief.

On 3 March 2024, Deoband Community Wikimedia in solidarity with the Palestinian Community modified its logo to incorporate the colors of the Palestinian flag. We believe this is the least we can do.
