A coalition of 28 countries, including the UK, France, Canada, Australia, and Japan, has issued a joint statement condemning Israel's ongoing military actions in Gaza and calling for an immediate ceasefire.
The statement criticizes Israel for the 'inhumane killing' of civilians and the 'drip feeding' of humanitarian aid, which has led to severe shortages of food, water, and medical supplies. Reports indicate that hundreds of Palestinians have died while seeking aid, and the humanitarian crisis has reached unprecedented levels. The EU and other Western nations have warned Israel that all options, including potential sanctions, remain on the table if the situation does not improve.
Despite mounting international pressure, Israel has rejected the calls, while the US has notably refrained from joining the condemnation.
