Canada has condemned Israel’s failure to put an end to the unthinkable humanitarian conditions in Gaza after almost 21 months of war, according to Al Arabiya.
In a post on X, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney described the humanitarian situation in Gaza as ‘disaster,’ accusing Israel of violating international law by blocking the Canadian-funded aid from delivery to civilians in Gaza.
“Canada calls on all sides to negotiate an immediate ceasefire in good faith. We reiterate our calls for Hamas to immediately release all the hostages, and for the Israeli government to respect the territorial integrity of the West Bank and Gaza,” Carney said.

General Supporting Two-State Solution
Carney also stressed that Canada would support a two-state solution that “guarantees peace and security for Israelis and Palestinians.”
Thus, it will intensify its efforts in all fora to achieve that goal, including through the participation of the Minister of Foreign Affairs at the UN High-Level Conference on a Two-State Solution in New York next week.
In April, Carney also denounced Israeli blockade on supplies in Gaza, noting that food must not be used as a ‘political tool,’ according to Reuters.
“The UN World Food Programme just announced that its food stocks in Gaza have run out because of the Israeli Government’s blockade — food cannot be used as a political tool,” Carney said on X.
The UN agency revealed that Gaza has not received any humanitarian or commercial supplies for over seven weeks as a result to the closure of all main border crossing points. This blockade marked the longest closure in Gaza since the beginning of the war.
“We will continue to work with our allies toward a permanent ceasefire and the immediate return of all hostages,” Carney stated.
Since the beginning of Hamas-Israel War in Gaza in 2023, the Israeli strikes have killed more than 57,000 Palestinians and wounded more than 137,000, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
