UK and 27 other nations condemn Israel over 'inhumane killing' of Gaza civilians seeking aid
Briefly

The UK and 27 other nations have jointly called for an immediate cessation of the Gaza war, emphasizing the severe suffering of civilians. The statement criticizes Israel's aid delivery model as dangerous and highlights the alarming trend of civilian fatalities, including children, who are seeking basic necessities like food and water. Over the weekend, over 100 Palestinians were reported killed while waiting for food, and 19 others succumbed to malnutrition. Israel's foreign ministry rejected the statement, claiming it misrepresents the situation and deflects blame from Hamas, the armed group in the region.
The war in Gaza must end now. The suffering of civilians in Gaza has reached new depths. The Israeli government's aid delivery model is dangerous, fuels instability and deprives Gazans of human dignity.
Over 800 Palestinians have been killed while seeking aid. Strikes have killed desperate, starving children, with reports of more than 100 killed by Israeli fire while waiting for food.
