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 for the 'inhumane killing' of civilians and the 'drip feeding' of humanitarian aid, warning that civilian suffering has reached unprecedented levels. European and Western leaders are calling for unrestricted aid access and a ceasefire, while also threatening further diplomatic or economic consequences if Israel does not comply. Despite these calls, Israel has rejected the criticism, and the United States has notably abstained from joining the statement.
The crisis has sparked intense debate over responsibility for aid distribution and the broader conduct of the conflict.
