The government of Colombia, a fierce critic of Israel’s offensive in Gaza, said it would receive injured Palestinian children and provide them with medical care, AFP reports.
“We have taken the decision to provide humanitarian support to Palestinian children who will travel with their families to Colombia for rehabilitation,” Deputy Minister of Multilateral Affairs Elizabeth Taylor Jay announced.
She was speaking in Stockholm, where she was on a state visit with President Gustavo Petro.
Jay did not say how many children would be taken in by Colombia, nor how they would be removed from Gaza.
Petro also said Colombia would stop purchasing weapons made by Israel, one of the main suppliers of the South American country’s security forces.
