Ankara: Trkiye, Egypt, and Qatar on Monday strongly condemned ongoing Israeli violations in the Gaza Strip, stating that Israel is targeting healthcare facilities and medical infrastructure, causing civilian casualties and breaching international law.

According to Anadolu Agency, in a joint statement issued by the three mediating countries, the Turkish Foreign Ministry highlighted that the attacks, which have resulted in civilian casualties including women and children, constitute a flagrant violation of international law and international humanitarian law. The mediators called on Israel to comply with its obligations under international law and fully uphold its commitments under the ceasefire agreement, emphasizing that the continued violations undermine the deal and efforts to implement its second phase.

The statement noted that the violations persist even after Hamas and other Palestinian factions announced their acceptance of the roadmap, especially the provision concerning the confinement of weapons. It warned that these violations threaten de-escalation efforts and worsen humanitarian conditions in Gaza. Trkiye, Egypt, and Qatar reiterated their call for the full protection of civilians, medical facilities, and humanitarian personnel, demanding the unhindered delivery of humanitarian aid and medical supplies throughout the Gaza Strip.

Furthermore, the three countries urged the international community to pressure Israel to fulfill its obligations under international law and the ceasefire agreement in a manner that ensures the completion of President Trump's peace plan. The mediators noted that Trump had described reaching consensus on the roadmap for the second phase as a historic agreement and stressed the importance of preventing any actions that could derail efforts toward a sustainable de-escalation, a permanent ceasefire, and an end to the humanitarian suffering in Gaza.
