The foreign ministers of the G7 countries support a further extension of the pause in fighting in Gaza, they said in a joint statement. “Every effort must be made to ensure humanitarian support to civilians, including food, water, fuel and medical supplies, and to facilitate the release of all hostages.”
Discussions are currently underway in the Qatari capital, Doha, between Israel, the United States, Egypt and Qatar regarding the possibility of extending the temporary ceasefire. There are rumors that Israel and Hamas support the extension.
However, the G7 ministers did not call for a permanent ceasefire and reiterated the G7’s commitment to Israel’s “right to defend itself and its people, in accordance with international law, as it represents a repetition of efforts to prevent the October 7 attacks.” ‘. Israel has repeatedly stated that it will resume attacks on Gaza after the lull in fighting ends.
The G7 countries are Canada, Germany, France, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom and the United States. The European Union is not officially a member, but has been a part of it since 1977. (AP)
