Spain says Israel's war on Gaza must end, calls situation 'inhumane and cruel'

Spain’s Foreign Minister Jose Manuel Albares has called for an end to Israel’s war on Gaza, describing the situation as “inhumane and cruel”.

“The Palestinian people have the right to hope,” he said after a meeting of the Madrid Group.

Albares added that 20 countries gathered in Madrid to push forward efforts for peace and to discuss recognition of a Palestinian state.

“The two-state path, Palestine and Israel coexisting in peace and security, is the solution,” he said.
