Brazilian President Luis Inacio Lula da Silva indicated today, Thursday, that "multilateral institutions are unable to resolve international conflicts" and criticized Israeli actions in Gaza. After a meeting with Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi in Cairo, he stated, "Israel's behavior in Gaza has no explanation; they are killing women and children under the pretext of fighting Hamas." He pointed out that "there will be no peace without the establishment of a Palestinian state" and called for an immediate ceasefire to allow humanitarian aid to enter Gaza.
