The Israel is waging a war of revenge in the Gaza Strip, the Palestinian Authority Foreign Minister Riyad al-Maliki from The Hague stating that Israel must agree to a universal ceasefire in order for emergency humanitarian aid to enter Gaza.

“This time, the war that Israel is waging is different. This time, it’s a war of revenge. First we must put an end to this unilateral attack and then we must call for a ceasefire,” he said.

The Palestinian Foreign Minister said that the appeal that the leaders of the European countries are preparing to address from Brussels for a “pause” in the bombing to allow humanitarian aid to enter is unacceptable, since they cannot ensure the access of aid and rehabilitation electricity and water supply.

“The two-state solution is today more appropriate than ever,” said Riyad al-Maliki.
