Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry pointed out today, Thursday, that "humanitarian aid for Gaza is piled up in Al-Arish and at the crossing and is not passing through due to inspection procedures," adding that "the conditions in Gaza are unacceptable." During a meeting with his British counterpart David Cameron, Shoukry stated, "The current situation in Gaza is unacceptable, and the Security Council must take responsibility for the destruction in the sector," noting that "the Arab Islamic group is dealing flexibly within the Security Council."
Shoukry highlighted that "8,000 Palestinian children have been killed in Gaza," emphasizing that political considerations cannot take precedence over humanitarian ones.
David Cameron, the British Foreign Minister, affirmed that "Britain does not apply double standards regarding the situations in Gaza and Ukraine," stating, "Israel has been subjected to attacks similar to September 11 and July 7." Cameron further noted that "the security of the Red Sea is important for the world so that global trade is not affected," indicating that "Iran must stop supporting groups that threaten navigation in the Red Sea."
