German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock on Sunday visited the Middle East, citing insufficient aid reaching Gaza and urging the Israeli government to open border crossings for more aid. She stressed the urgency of the situation, noting the presence of aid crates awaiting delivery at Gaza’s border.
Baerbock, who has visited the region six times since genocide started in Gaza, reiterated her commitment to finding a solution. She emphasised the limitations of military action in international humanitarian law and advocated for a humanitarian ceasefire to address the ongoing genocide.
More than 32,000 Palestinians have been killed in ongoing genocide in Gaza that started on October 7, 2023, when Hamas forces retaliated to decades-long occupational crimes committed by Israel.
