Italy opposes an Israeli ground incursion into Rafah, the Gaza Strip’s southern city, Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said on Tuesday.
“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 senators at the time.
She also stated that creating additional land routes and a marine corridor from Cyprus to Gaza was a top priority for ensuring the secure delivery of humanitarian aid to the Palestinian enclaves.
