#UNGA convenes today to discuss the situation in the M.E, BUT another UN meeting won't contribute to de-escalation & is counterproductive.

However it's an opportunity for @UN members to condemn Hamas indiscriminate rocket fire & acknowledge Israel's right to defend its citizens.
The full responsibility for this escalation and for those harmed on both sides falls entirely on Hamas and the other terrorist organizations operating in #Gaza.

Since 10 May 2021, more than 4,000 rockets have been launched from the #Gaza Strip towards Israel, directed at civilian population centers throughout the country including Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, Ashkelon and Ashdod, killing 12 and injuring hundreds.
In the UNSC Open Debate (May 16), #UN Special Coordinator @TWennesland stated that Hamas' indiscriminate launching of rockets from highly populated civilian neighborhoods into civilian population centers in Israel violates international humanitarian law.
One of seven rockets fired by Hamas to kill Israelis, LANDS WITHIN #GAZA causing death and destruction to Palestinians from Hamas' own hands.
Hamas has situated its terrorist infrastructure (including launch bases & weapons arsenals), at the heart of #Gaza's civilian population centers, including schools & UN structures.

In doing so, Hamas is using the Palestinian civilian population as human shields.
On Tuesday (18) and Wednesday (19), Hamas has prevented international humanitarian assistance from reaching those who need it in #Gaza, by firing mortars at the shipments.

These actions are further proof of Hamas’ complete disregard for the life & welfare of Palestinians.

FM @yairlapid in a special statement following his meeting with Secretary of State @SecBlinken in Latvia:

This evening, I met with @SecBlinken & @StateDept staff to discuss the situation in Ukraine and the continuation of joint efforts to stop a brutal and unnecessary war.
The world order is changing before our eyes. We are in a historic moment. In which direction will humanity go: Violence, war, and a return to inter-bloc struggle, or peace, prosperity, and the ability to work together for common goals?
Israel is assisting in the mediation effort together with Germany and France, but we continue to condemn the Russian invasion. There is no justification for violating Ukrainian sovereignty and killing innocent civilians.
