Israeli war on besieged Palestinians of Gaza — now in its 166th day — has killed at least 31,819 people and wounded 73,934 others, as Netanyahu plans next onslaught on southern Rafah.
The World Bank Group has said that more than half the Palestinian population of Gaza is on the brink of famine, including children and the elderly."We join the international community in calling for immediate, free and unimpeded access to medical supplies, food and life-essential services through all available means at speed and scale to the people of Gaza,” it said in a statement.
"Crucially what we must try to do is to turn that pause into a permanent sustainable ceasefire," Cameron said in an interview during a visit to a Thai air force base. In March, a coalition of lawyers and Canadians of Palestinian origin lodged a complaint against the Canadian government seeking to suspend arms exports to Israel, saying Ottawa was violating both domestic and international law.
The official, who spoke under condition of anonymity to provide details not yet made public, said Austin and Gallant plan to discuss securing the release of hostages, humanitarian aid to Gaza and protecting those in Rafah. The four doctors from the United States, United Kingdom and France have been working with teams in Gaza to support its healthcare system, which has been reeling since Israel began its military invasion there last October.
Local sources said a significant number of dead and wounded were lying on the ground at site after being directly targeted, according to the agency.
