“First of all, it is necessary to stop the bloodshed and to prevent the crisis from engulfing the entire region. Otherwise, the conflict will never be stopped,” Nebenzya said.
According to TASS News Agency, he also called to “let the mediators work on a diplomatic solution, including the prompt liberation of hostages.”
“One will have to walk down this path sooner or later; the only question is how many innocent people will die in the meantime,” he noted.
The Israeli regime has been attacking Gaza in the wake of Operation Al-Aqsa Storm by the Palestinian Resistance movement Hamas on October 7, which was in response to decades-long violence against Palestinians and recurrent incursions into al-Aqsa Mosque.
The death toll since the start of the Israeli regime’s carnage on October 7 has surpassed 8,700 with upwards of 22,000 Palestinians wounded.
Numerous international aid agencies confirmed they lost contact with staff in Gaza after Tel Aviv knocked out internet and communications in the occupied territory.
The UN General Assembly has called for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire in Gaza. 120 states voted for the resolution, but the Zionists rejected the call.
