A coalition of 28 countries, including the UK, France, Canada, Australia, and Japan, has issued a joint statement demanding an immediate end to the war in Gaza.
The statement condemns Israel's 'drip feeding' of humanitarian aid and the 'inhumane killing' of civilians, highlighting the worsening humanitarian crisis and rising death toll, particularly at aid distribution sites. Western leaders and EU officials have described the images from Gaza as 'unbearable' and accused Israel of depriving Palestinians of human dignity. The group calls for an immediate ceasefire, the release of all hostages, and unrestricted humanitarian access.
Israel has rejected the criticism, blaming Hamas for civilian casualties and maintaining its current military approach.
