Last Friday, Ursula von der Leyen, at a joint press conference with European Council President Charles Michel and Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, condemned the Zionist regime's crimes against Palestinians in the West Bank and said that the escalation of these crimes must be prevented. David Cameron British Foreign Secretary David Cameron also called on the Israeli regime to stop crimes against Palestinians in the West Bank. Martin Griffiths At the same time, Martin Griffiths, UN Under-Secretary-General for Humanitarian Affairs, expressed hope that the current ceasefire in the Gaza Strip will continue and lead to a permanent end to the Zionist regime's crimes and attacks on the Gaza Strip. Pedro Sanchez Meanwhile, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said last Friday during a press conference at the Rafah border crossing in Egypt that Madrid is ready to unilaterally recognize the state of Palestine, even if this action would contradict the opinion of the European Union. Sanchez also said: "I think it is time for the international community, especially the European Union and its member states, to recognize the State of Palestine." The Spanish Prime Minister added that ideally, recognition of Palestine would be done immediately with the participation of at least several EU member states. Spain's newly elected prime minister has previously promised to make recognition of a Palestinian state a priority. Also, Belgian Prime Minister Alexandre de Cru joined Sanchez in Egypt.

Josep Borrell Meanwhile, Josep Borrell, the European Union's foreign policy chief, in a statement while welcoming the ceasefire between the Palestinian Hamas movement and the Zionist regime, noted that the ceasefire must be fully implemented and extended for a longer period. According to Borrell, the crimes committed by the Zionist regime against Palestinians in the West Bank are unacceptable. Meanwhile, on Friday evening at a press conference of the 9th International Meeting in honor of Yevgeny Primakov in Moscow, Russian experts and academics expressed concern about the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip after the bombing of the Zionist regime. Analena Berbock Meanwhile, German Foreign Minister Analena Bärbock, on the sidelines of the Green Party conference, in reaction to the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, said that the ceasefire must continue so that the residents of this sector receive vital goods such as medicine, food, water and others humanitarian aid. Finally, after Israel's nearly 50-day war against the Gaza Strip, a four-day temporary ceasefire was established as of Friday. The truce was supposed to be implemented on Thursday at 10 a.m. local time, but due to technical and logistical problems it was implemented one day later on Friday morning (November 24) in the Gaza Strip.

According to the truce, any fighting on both sides must cease. It was also decided that for every Israeli hostage, three Palestinian women and children would be released. In addition, the parties agreed to deliver 200 trucks with food and medical equipment to all areas of the Gaza Strip. The Palestinian resistance, in response to more than seventy years of occupation and aggression by the Zionist regime against the inhabitants of Gaza and other areas of the occupied territories, launched Operation Al-Aqsa Storm against the regime on October 7. As usual, the Zionist regime responded to the operations of the resistance fighters with massacres of civilians and bombing of residential areas. Ultimately, this regime admitted the failure of the operation to free the captives and surrendered to the resistance.
