China Condemns Israel's Resumption of Hostilities in Gaza
China's UN envoy, Fu Cong, expressed grave concern and strong condemnation of Israel's airstrikes in Gaza during a UN Security Council briefing. He urged Israel to renounce its reliance on force, cease military operations, and stop collective punishment of Gazan civilians.
Fu echoed international condemnation, noting the deaths of hundreds of Palestinians, including women and children. He emphasized the importance of a permanent ceasefire and full implementation of the existing ceasefire agreement.
Fu condemned the weaponization and politicization of humanitarian aid, highlighting the lack of supplies allowed into Gaza and the worsening water shortage crisis. He urged Israel to fulfill its obligations as the occupying power and immediately restore full humanitarian access.
He also emphasized the importance of revitalizing the two-state solution and supporting the Gaza recovery and reconstruction plan. He urged the international community to step up efforts to advance the political process and provide necessary support.
Fu expressed concern over the dangerous trend in the Middle East, where the violation of international law and order seems to be replaced by the law of the jungle. He emphasized the need for the Security Council to take prompt action to end the chaos, bring about a permanent ceasefire, restore peace, and achieve a comprehensive solution to the Palestinian question.

This statement is just another example of China's growing anti-Western sentiment. It's not about helping Palestinians, it's about power politics.

The deaths of innocent Palestinians, especially children, are heartbreaking. Israel must stop its aggression.

This statement is a step in the right direction. We need more voices speaking out against Israel's aggression.

This statement is full of empty rhetoric and offers no concrete solutions. It's just political posturing.

It's outrageous that Israel is blocking humanitarian aid from reaching Gaza. They're using starvation as a weapon.

China is showing real leadership on this issue. Other countries should follow their example.
