Saudi Arabia, Spain denounce Israel’s continued attacks in Gaza, Lebanon

The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs has denounced in the “strongest terms” what it called Israel’s continued and systematic targeting of the UN agency for Palestinian refugees (UNRWA), including its workers and facilities.

According to Al Jazeera, it noted the latest Israeli attack on the UNRWA-run Abu Assi school in northern Gaza killed at least 10 people.

Meanwhile, Spain renewed its appeals for a ceasefire as Israel ramps up bombings in Gaza and Lebanon.

“The intensification of bombings in Beirut and Gaza, which we condemn, is leaving dozens of victims,” Spanish Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares said on X. “The destruction and death must stop in the Middle East. We demand a ceasefire and compliance with international law.”
