“We condemn the decision of the Israeli government to further expand its military operations in Gaza,” Samuel Žbogar, the UN Ambassador, in the Joint Britain, French, Denmark and Greece.
Countries called on Israel to “urgently annull this decision and not implementing it”, warning that the expansion of military operations would endanger civilians and remaining hostages, and at the same time will violate international law.
Žbogar condemned the deterioration of the terms in Gaza, saying, “Kids die from hunger. The hunger is so strong that desperate civilians take a risk of being killed in the distribution of help to feed their families.”
The countries called this “a crisis caused by human action” that requires an emergency action to end hunger and increase the help of Gaza.
They demanded of Israel to lift restrictions on the delivery of assistance and remove “unreasonable visa and registration requirements for international NGOs.
They called on the current ceasefire, the release of hostages and improve the decision on two countries.
Israel is facing increasing indignation due to the deadly war in Gaza, where in October 2023. more than 61,400 people were killed. The military campaign was devastated by the enclave and brought it to the edge of the hunger.
In November last year, the International Criminal Court issued orders for the arrest of Netanyhahu and the former Defense Minister of Joavagalant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a lawsuit for genocide before the International Court of Justice because of its war in the enclave.
