A coalition of 28 countries, including the UK, France, Canada, Australia, and Japan, has issued a joint statement demanding an immediate end to Israel's war in Gaza.
The statement condemns Israel's 'inhumane killing' of civilians and criticizes the 'drip feeding' of humanitarian aid, warning that the suffering of Gaza's population has reached unprecedented levels. The countries call for an immediate ceasefire, the release of all hostages, and unrestricted humanitarian access. Despite mounting international pressure, Israel has rejected the joint statement, while the US remains notably absent from the group of critics.
The crisis has sparked warnings of famine and further sanctions if Israel does not change course.
