Israel / Palestinian Territories – Israeli strike in northern Gaza (30.10.24)

France strongly condemns the Israeli strike on a residential building in Beit Lahia in northern Gaza on October 29 that killed nearly 100 people, including women and children. France also condemns the recent Israeli strikes on hospitals in the north of the enclave, which had been ordered to evacuate and were caring for patients in critical condition.

The siege imposed on northern Gaza must be lifted without delay. France calls for the reopening of all crossing points and the safe, massive, unhindered delivery of humanitarian aid.

France reiterates its call for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. The suffering of Gaza's people must end. The hostages must be released.
