Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni has said the country is opposed to a ground incursion by Israeli forces into the Gaza Strip’s southern city of Rafah, Reuters reports.
“We will reiterate our opposition to military action on the ground by Israel in Rafah that could have even more catastrophic consequences for the civilians crowded in that area,” Meloni told lawmakers in the Senate.
She added that the opening of new land routes and a maritime corridor from Cyprus to Gaza, to ensure the safe delivery of humanitarian aid to the Palestinian enclave, was a priority.
