Title: Australia, Canada, and New Zealand Support Ceasefire Efforts in Gaza

The Prime Ministers of Canada, Australia, and New Zealand expressed their support today in a joint statement for urgent international efforts to achieve a permanent ceasefire in Gaza. They expressed concern about the "shrinking safe space for civilians in Gaza," stating that "the ongoing suffering of all Palestinian civilians cannot be the price of defeating Hamas." They added that "a ceasefire cannot be one-sided," calling on Hamas to release all hostages and stop using Palestinian civilians as human shields.
