The French Foreign Ministry condemned the Israeli authorities' suspension of the entry of humanitarian aid into the Palestinian Gaza Strip during the month of Ramadan.
This was stated by French Foreign Ministry spokesman Christophe Lemoyne on Thursday, during a press conference held in the capital, Paris.
Lemoine said that France condemned, in a joint statement with Britain, Israel's prevention of aid from entering Gaza.
He added: "We strongly condemn the Israeli government's decision to suspend aid, and we call on Israel to abide by its responsibilities and allow aid to enter the Gaza Strip."
The French Foreign Ministry spokesman pointed out the importance of delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza, given the catastrophic situation the Palestinians are experiencing there.
Last Monday, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said about stopping the entry of humanitarian aid to Gaza: “We decided the day before yesterday (Saturday) to stop the entry of goods and supplies into the Gaza Strip.”
Aid entered the Gaza Strip through the Kerem Shalom crossing in the south of the Strip, and through a crossing or point that Israel created during the genocide war, located northwest of the Strip and called "Zikim", and the Beit Hanoun "Erez" checkpoint in the north of the Strip.
