Published on 8.1.25

  Israel Faces International Pressure Over Gaza Germany's Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul has described the humanitarian situation in Gaza as 'beyond imagination', urging Israel to send aid to avoid mass deaths due to starvation. The Israeli military is accused of making it impossible for Palestinians to safely receive aid, with crowds of hungry people met with gunfire at border crossings. Germany's foreign minister has called on Israel to be open to peace and criticized Israeli settlements as an obstacle to a two-state solution. The conflict between Israel and Hamas has resulted in over 60,000 Palestinian deaths, according to Gaza's Health Ministry. Egypt and Hamas are locked in a dispute over humanitarian aid for Gaza, with the EU urging Israel to take action to alleviate the suffering of Palestinians.
