Germany has stressed the urgent need for the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip proposed by Qatar, Egypt, and the United States, calling for seizing the opportunity to alleviate the humanitarian suffering of the Strip’s residents.
The German Foreign Ministry called for an end to the repeated attacks by the Israeli occupation forces on schools and for their circumstances to be quickly revealed.
In a post on the X platform, the ministry described the reports from Gaza as terrible, stressing that killing civilians who are seeking shelter is unacceptable.
The ministry noted the terrible sufferings of women, men, and children seeking protection who have been fleeing repeatedly for months from the fighting in Gaza.
On Saturday, the Israeli occupation forces committed a massacre of the unarmed Palestinian people in the Al Tabi’in School in the Al Daraj neighbourhood, which houses displaced people, leaving more than 100 martyrs and hundreds of injuries.
On Thursday, His Highness the Amir of the State of Qatar Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, Egyptian President Abdel Fattah El Sisi, and US President Joe Biden issued a joint statement stressing that it is time to immediately end the long-standing sufferings of the people of the Gaza Strip, as well as the hostages and their families, and to conclude a ceasefire agreement and release the hostages and detainees.
The three leaders also expressed their readiness, as mediators, to put forward a settlement proposal for the remaining implementation-related issues in a manner that meets the expectations of all parties, noting their call on the two sides to resume urgent talks on Thursday, August 15, in (Doha or Cairo) to close all remaining gaps and begin implementing the agreement without any delay.
