Japan rejects Israel's decision to control city of Gaza

Japanese Foreign Minister Takeshi Iwayaa showed “deep concern” with the decision announced on Friday by the Israeli government.

Japan rejected Israel’s decision to make control of the city of Gaza, stressing that it can “further aggravate the already serious humanitarian situation in Gaza” and “harm the solution of two states.”

Japanese Foreign Minister Takeshi Iwayaa showed “profound concern” about the decision announced on Friday by the Israeli government and appealed to all parties “to resume negotiations and work in good faith to reach a ceasefire and the release of hostages,” a statement.

The Japanese executive reiterated the rejection of “any action, such as this plan, which compromises the realization of the two -state solution,” a measure that Tokyo has “has been constantly supporting”, which allows “a future independent Palestinian state to coexist in peace and security,” according to the note of Japan’s diplomacy chief.

“Improving the catastrophic humanitarian situation in Gaza is an urgent priority. Japan urges Israel to adopt substantive measures to end the serious humanitarian crisis, including hunger, and reiterates its firm demand that it fully complies with international law, including international humanitarian law,” the Japanese minister said.

The Israeli Government Security Office approved on Friday one in northern Enclave.

The decision generated a series of convictions from the international community, including German Foreign Minister Friedrich Merz, who canceled “up to new warning” military material exports to Israel that can be used in the Gaza Strip.

The UN and other countries, such as Belgium, Brazil, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Turkey and also expressed rejection of the Israeli plan.
