Namibia has expressed deep concern over Israel’s plan to occupy Gaza City, warning that it will worsen the already dire humanitarian situation in the region, Anadolu Agency reports.
“This decision stands to significantly worsen an already dire humanitarian crisis marked by hunger, deprivation and the risk of forced starvation,” the Ministry of International Relations and Trade said in a statement.
The ministry welcomed the “condemnation of this plan by compassionate members of the international community.”
The statement urged UN members to fulfil their international duties and take action before a humanitarian disaster of potentially massive scale occurs.
“Namibia continues to advocate for the peaceful resolution of international disputes and remains firmly committed to supporting initiatives that promote and protect the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people,” it said.
