China Urges Immediate Ceasefire in Gaza Amid Dire Humanitarian Crisis

The ongoing conflict in Gaza has created a dire humanitarian crisis, with millions facing extreme hunger and a lack of access to essential services. Fu Cong, China's permanent representative to the United Nations, delivered a powerful statement at a UN Security Council meeting on Wednesday, urging an immediate and lasting ceasefire. "Schools, hospitals, refugee camps, and UN facilities have been targeted," he stated, emphasizing the severity of the situation. The prolonged blockade has exacerbated the crisis, leaving 2 million people in extreme hunger. The Chinese envoy's call for a ceasefire underscores the international community's growing concern over the escalating humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza. The international community must act swiftly to alleviate the suffering of the people of Gaza and bring an end to the conflict.
