Despite of all efforts and UNSC resolution on ceasefire in Gaza, Israel still continue strikes in Gaza and suffering of Palestinians has not reached to an end. International Community failed to protect the livers of civilians in Palestine. Unfortunate!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Israel must end its occupation and its G7 allies must \u2018move from words to action. The time for talking is done,\u2019 Oxfam charity says.\u00a0\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/a><\/a><\/a>The Palestinian refugee agency of the United Nations (UNRWA) must be allowed to work unhindered in Gaza, Group of Seven (G7) leaders say as the wealthy nations wrapped up day two of their annual summit in Italy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe agree it is critical that UNRWA and other UN organisations and agencies\u2019 distribution networks be fully able to deliver aid to those who need it most, fulfilling their mandate effectively,\u201d G7 nations said in their final communique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They called for all parties to facilitate \u201crapid and unimpeded passage of humanitarian relief for civilians in need\u201d in Gaza, particularly women and children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cSecuring full, rapid, safe, and unhindered humanitarian access in all its forms \u2013 consistent with international humanitarian law and through all relevant land crossing points, including the Rafah crossing, through maritime delivery routes, including through Ashdod Port \u2013 throughout all of Gaza remains an absolute priority.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n UNRWA, which coordinates nearly all aid to Gaza, has been repeatedly targeted by Israel since the war on Gaza began on October 7.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In their statement, the G7 leaders repeated concern at the \u201cunacceptable number of civilian casualties\u201d in the war. They again endorsed a truce and captive release deal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe are deeply concerned by the consequences on the civilian population of the ongoing ground operations in Rafah, and the possibility of a full-scale military offensive that would have further dire consequences for civilians. We call on the government of Israel to refrain from such an offensive,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe condemn the rise in extremist settler violence committed against Palestinians, which undermines security and stability in the West Bank, and threatens prospects for a lasting peace.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The international charity Oxfam reacted to the G7 communique by saying: \u201cIsrael and its G7 allies must move from words to action, implement their proposals, remove Israeli forces from Gaza, and end the occupation. Hopes must become reality, the time for talking is done.\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n On Friday, the G7 nations turned their attention to migration, artificial intelligence, economic security and the Asia-Pacific region. Their leaders stressed their determination to meet global challenges \u201cat a crucial moment in history\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The gathering in a luxury resort in Italy\u2019s southern Puglia (Apulia) region also discussed other major topics, such as financial support for Ukraine, climate change, Iran, the situation in the Red Sea, gender equality, and China\u2019s industrial policy and economic security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWe are working together and with others to address the pressing challenges of our time,\u201d the final communique said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Migration was the first topic of discussions on Friday with the leaders mulling ways to combat trafficking and increase investment in countries from which refugees and migrants start out on often life-threatening journeys.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The topic is of particular interest to summit host Italy, which lies on one of the major routes into the European Union for people fleeing war and poverty in Africa, the Middle East and Asia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Right-wing Italian Premier Giorgia Meloni, known for her hardline stance on migration, has been eager to increase investment and funding for African nations as a means of reducing migratory pressure on Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The leaders \u201claunched the G7 Coalition to prevent and counter the smuggling of migrants\u201d, the summit\u2019s final declaration said, noting the seven nations would \u201cfocus on the root causes of irregular migration, efforts to enhance border management and curb transnational organized crime, and safe and regular pathways for migration.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Apart from the G7 nations of Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United Kingdom and United States, the Italian hosts also invited several African leaders \u2013 Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune, Kenyan President William Ruto and Tunisian President Kais Saied \u2013 to press Meloni\u2019s migration and development initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But rights groups decried what they said was a lack of ambition in support for developing countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The ONE Campaign, which advocates for investment in Africa, said it had found the G7\u2019s and European Union\u2019s share of aid going to Africa was at its lowest point since 1973.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cWithout any concrete action, the G7 in Italy amounts to no more than pointless platitudes,\u201d said David McNair, executive director at the ONE Campaign. Although the summit\u2019s final statement \u201creflects promises of increased partnership between the G7 and Africa, there are very few specifics on what new financing, if any, will be available\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\u2018Crucial moment in history\u2019<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
