Ireland’s incoming Prime Minister Simon Harris has delivered a clear message to Israel’s Netanyahu, calling for a ceasefire and for aid to “flow safely”, Al Jazeera reports.
“Prime Minister Netanyahu, the Irish people could not be clearer. We are repulsed by your actions,” Harris said in a speech at Gael Ard Fheis University in Galway.
“Anyone who can countenance deliberate starvation has lost their humanity,” Harris added, noting that famine is a “spectre no Irish person can bear”.
Harris, the new leader of the governing Fine Gael party, will be Ireland’s youngest prime minister after the recent unexpected resignation of Leo Varadkar.
