London (Reuters) – The United Kingdom, France and more than 20 other countries called the war in Gaza in the immediate end of the war on Monday and denounced the humanitarian aid model organized by Israel, which feeds instability and deprives the inhabitants of the enclave of their dignity.

“We condemn the contribution of assistance with droppings and the inhuman murder of civilians, including children, who seek to meet their most basic needs in water and food”, can be read in a press release signed in particular by the Ministers of Foreign Affairs of Great Britain, France, Italy, Japan, Australia, Canada or Denmark.

“It is horrible that more than 800 Palestinians were killed while they were looking for help,” added the signatories, who note that the majority of them were near the sites of the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (FHG), managed by the United States and Israel.

“The Israeli government’s help distribution model is dangerous, feeds instability and deprives Gazani of human dignity,” they denounced.

“We (…) We join to transmit a simple and urgent message: the war in Gaza must stop now”,

“We are ready to take additional measures to support an immediate cease-fire and a political path to security and peace for the Israelis, the Palestinians and the whole region.”
