Italian Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani condemns Israel’s ongoing military campaign in the Gaza Strip, calling it “dramatic and unacceptable” and urging an immediate end to the strikes.
Speaking to the Italian parliament, Tajini says, “The legitimate reaction of the Israeli government to a terrible and senseless terrorist act is taking on dramatic and unacceptable forms, which we call on Israel to stop immediately.”
He adds that Italy is prepared to contribute to a peacekeeping mission in Gaza, provided it is led by Arab nations.
