Germany warns with allies of Israel’s Gaza plan
Together with Great Britain, Italy, Australia and New Zealand, Berlin rejects an offensive in the city of Gaza. They fear tightening the humanitarian situation and the risk of hostage.
Germany, Great Britain, Italy, New Zealand and Australia have rejected the Israeli plans to conquer the city of Gaza. The offensive would exacerbate the humanitarian situation, put the life of hostages at risk and could lead to the massive displacement of civilians, it said in a joint statement by the Foreign Minister of the five countries. In addition, the plan could be a violation of humanitarian international law.
The partners called the international community to strive for permanent ceasefire and auxiliary deliveries for the needy population in the Gaza Strip. They demanded the immediate release of the hostages from Islamist Hamas.
Two-state solution only way to peace
The only way to a permanent peace between Israelis and Palestinians is a two-state solution, the joint statement said. For this, however, Hamas must be completely disarmed and excluded from any kind of government responsibility. Rather, the Palestinian Authority (PA) should play a central role in a future government in the Gaza Strip. However, Israel rejects this.
The Israeli security cabinet recently decided to expand the military operation in the Gaza Strip and the intake of the city of Gaza. Chancellor Friedrich Merz (CDU) then announced that for the time being, no exports of armaments were approved that could be used in the Gaza War.
