In addition, he had voiced surprise and worry at the number of civilian casualties following reports that an attack on a Gaza hospital had claimed thousands of lives.
Israel has been hitting the Hamas organisation hard in retaliation for its members’ October 7 onslaught, which resulted in the deaths of at least 1,400 people. As per the Gaza health ministry, the Israeli strikes have resulted in the deaths of at least 9,227 Palestinians, out of which 3,826 are children.
