 Egypt condemns Israel for bombing Gaza 'safe zone'


Egypt strongly denounced Israeli airstrikes on a "humanitarian safe zone" in the southern Gaza Strip on Tuesday, which left dozens of civilians dead, according to TRT Afrika.


At least 40 people were killed and scores injured in the strikes that targeted a tent camp after midnight in Khan Younis in al-Mawasi area, which Israel has designated as a "humanitarian safe zone" for displaced civilians in Gaza.


Gaza's civil defence service said the Israeli missiles set refugee tents ablaze and caused craters as deep as nine meters (30 feet) in the area.


"Egypt expresses its deep condemnation of the continued Israeli massacres against civilians in Gaza, in the absence of any effective international action to put an end to this human suffering, which has become a real challenge to the credibility of all humanitarian standards and values and a violation of the most basic rules of international humanitarian law and human rights," the Foreign Ministry said in a statement.


It warned that these "crimes" and disregard for the lives of innocent civilians "has become a threat to regional and international peace and security."


Egypt called on all international actors "to avoid double standards and to fulfill their humanitarian and moral responsibilities to immediately stop this humanitarian catastrophe."


It called for intensifying efforts "to restore hope to the Palestinian people in self-determination and regaining their freedom."


Israel has systematically targeted civilian facilities, including schools, hospitals, and places of worship, amid its ongoing offensive on the Gaza Strip despite a UN Security Council resolution demanding an immediate ceasefire.
