London | Australia, Britain, Japan and 22 other countries, along with a host of European nations, issued a joint statement on Monday (Tuesday AEST) saying the war in Gaza “must end now” – the latest sign of allies’ sharpening language as Israel’s isolation deepens.
The foreign ministers of countries, also including Canada, said “the suffering of civilians in Gaza has reached new depths”. They condemned “the drip feeding of aid and the inhumane killing of civilians, including children, seeking to meet their most basic needs of water and food”.
