  • Joe Biden
    Joe Biden “It's a humanitarian crisis in Gaza. I am working on a deal to end the fighting and build a lasting and durable peace. Leadership is about fighting through the most intractable problem. It's about channeling anger, frustration and heartbreak to find a solution. It's about doing what you believe is right, even when it's hard and lonely.” 4 hours ago
  • Sylvain Ekenge
    Sylvain Ekenge “An attempted coup d'etat has been put down by the defence and security forces. The attempt involved foreigners and Congolese. These foreigners and Congolese have been put out of action, including their leader.” 6 hours ago
  • Martin Griffiths
    Martin Griffiths “When very, very experienced humanitarian aid workers, who have been in all kinds of places around the world for decades, when they go to Gaza - to help, to serve, to work - it is traumatising for them. So, God help what it must be for the people of Gaza. It is really difficult and it's getting worse daily. We meet with Israelis daily through COGAT, the committee set up for this purpose. We have many detailed discussions with them about security, about the movement of our trucks and convoys, about the priorities for fuel, but the fact of the matter is, we are not in a position to provide proper aid to the people of Gaza. Right now, it's not ever been quite as difficult as it is today. Much more can be done and ideally, obviously and hopefully this [Israeli military] operation needs to stop.” 7 hours ago
  • Volodymyr Zelenskiy
    Volodymyr Zelenskiy “There are prospects [for a new Ukrainian counteroffensive]. First and foremost we need to stabilise the situation at the line of contact. As you can see, it is not stable. I would say this: it's their turn now. They need to be stopped, and we will stop them. Then we need the appropriate staffing for the brigades so that they can take the next counteroffensive step.” 23 hours ago
  • Giorgi Revishvili
    Giorgi Revishvili “Despite the Georgian Dream having the majority to override the veto, it was important for the president to make the move. The president rightfully said how it [foreign agent's law] is a Russia law and contradicts all of European standards. There is also a fundamental shift in the political landscape with the younger generation becoming increasingly involved in politics. The youth is the driving force behind these protests.” 23 hours ago
  • Salome Zourabichvili
    Salome Zourabichvili “Today I set a veto … on the law, which is Russian in its essence and which contradicts our constitution.” 23 hours ago
  • Mohammed Jamjoom
    Mohammed Jamjoom “What we're seeing more and more of in the past few days is that there is a huge amount of disagreement amongst war cabinet members about the plan going forward for Gaza. And this echoes also the concerns by US government that has said repeatedly that Netanyahu needs to try to figure out a plan for a post-war Gaza scenario.” 23 hours ago

“Protests in US universities are a display of democracy in action, a welcome sight in an election year marked by concerns of voter apathy chiefly due to Israel's war on Gaza. So when I see a movement like this of students taking peaceful, non-violent action and expressing their concern about the US government backing of Israel, of where our tax money is going, I think that's extremely healthy. These students are out there concerned about America's role in backing Benjamin Netanyahu. On the one hand, we are supplying weapons and funds to do what he wants to do in Gaza, while on the other we are sending humanitarian aid to Gaza. This is the hypocrisy these students are concerned about.”

“But revenge is not a strategy. It is pure insanity that Israel is now more than six months into this war and the Israeli military leadership - and virtually the entire political class - has allowed Netanyahu to continue to pursue a 'total victory' there, including probably soon plunging deep into Rafah, without any exit plan or Arab partner lined up to step in once the war ends. If Israel ends up with an indefinite occupation of both Gaza and the West Bank, it would be a toxic military, economic and moral overstretch that would delight Israel's most dangerous foe, Iran, and repel all its allies in the West and the Arab world.”

“The enemy has achieved nothing except carrying out death and destruction in its 200 days of war on Gaza. Israel is still trying to recover and restore its image. The enemy is in a quagmire, stuck in the sands of Gaza. It will reap nothing but shame and defeat. Two hundreds days on and our resistance in Gaza is as solid as the mountains of Palestine. We will continue our strikes and resistance as long as the occupation's aggression continues on our land. The occupation forces are trying to convince the world that they have eliminated all resistance factions, and this is a big lie.”

“Despite dozens of sessions and communications exchanged via our mediators, the Zionist enemy until this point has not agreed to a ceasefire in Gaza. All they want is the return of captives so they can continue the war on Gaza - and this cannot be. They want Hamas and the resistance to agree to maps referencing the deployment of the Israeli army as if to say we are legitimising the occupation of the Strip. There must be a complete withdrawal from the Gaza Strip.”

“There's been this united public response defending Israel on Iran, with strong private messaging to Israel, 'Don't you dare'. While on Gaza, there's a lot of public hand-wringing but a lack of will to be tough in private. Gaza doesn't directly pull the United States into a war. So, they still believe they can tiptoe through the raindrops.”

“War crimes committed by the Israeli occupation on a daily basis in Gaza should not cover up what is happening in the West Bank. The imposition of sanctions by some countries on a number of colonists represents a small, late step that is insufficient to halt such attacks.”

“President Biden is rallying the G7 who will issue a condemnatory statement of Iran along these lines. In the Global South the response will be more measured. There will be calls for restraint, de-escalation and diplomacy without directly blaming Iran or Israel. Arab and Muslim public opinion will note how many Arab states deployed military resources to protect Israel while doing the opposite in the context of the mass starvation and genocide in Gaza.”

“Prime Minister Netanyahu is the architect of the relationship with the United States, and he's the architect of his coalition government. He is manipulating both of them. As far as he's concerned, he's looking for his best options. I think he is already discussing and negotiating with President Biden about the price for not responding to Iran that some might expect or his ministers want. Now the price could be a number of things: one, more American support. More unconditionality of American support - definitely clearing criticism of Israel's indiscriminately bombing Gaza and so forth. Netanyahu will probably get more money, he will get more aid, he will get more American support.”

“We already know the war cabinet has not approved a response and the Americans had a big share in it, so it looks as if Israel won't respond for a while and we'll go back to our business in Gaza. Prime Minister Netanyahu still needs to resolve two things in Gaza: the release of captives and the Hamas battalions. I think Netanyahu might use this wave of support for Israel during the Iranian attack to go down to Rafah. But he cannot do it without fully coordinating with the Americans. This is the issue that is really bothering him, because without going back to Rafah he cannot describe the war as a victory.”

“It seems that Iranian leaders are determined to take action, but also seen to take action. What that indicates to me is that there are considerations of pride and prestige that are divorced from strategy and tactical utility that may indicate a more dangerous era than we thought. Iran may not have really counted the possibility its attack on Israel could take the focus off Gaza. The pressure that had been building on Israel to restrain from further actions in Gaza, that may have been lifted as a result of this attack.”

“Another refugee crisis from Gaza into Egypt, I can assure you, … would make the resolution of the Palestinian refugee question as a consequence of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict impossible.”

“Without a ceasefire, it will not be possible for aid groups to put together the kind of anti-famine operation that Gaza now requires. You can't do that solely off the backs of trucks. You need the space to operate safely, to run malnutrition treatment centres, to restore the health system, to rebuild water systems and to distribute food at large scale.”

“Gaza is suffering a humanitarian catastrophe, and the situation is getting even worse. And we need immediate increases in assistance to avert famine, and our work to open a temporary humanitarian corridor by sea will help, but the key is still expanding aid deliveries by land.”

“Our relationship with the US has always been one of partners, but not of a patron state. This is not the first time that an Israeli government has been required to make decisions contrary to the US government's position. Israel will not stop its war on Gaza until Hamas is destroyed and all of its captives held there are returned.”

“I would like to thank all the council members for their flexibility and the constructive way that allowed us today to adopt this long-awaited resolution. [A] resolution that calls for an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip in order to put an end to the massacres that unfortunately are still ongoing over the five months. This bloodbath has continued for far too long.”

“Here from this crossing, we see the heartbreak and heartlessness of it all. A long line of blocked relief trucks on one side of the gates, the long shadow of starvation on the other. That is more than tragic. It is a moral outrage.”

“To whom is the demand for compliance with obligations under international law [addressed to?] … Who is preventing the use of all available routes to the Gaza Strip? Who does not respect deconfliction and notification mechanisms? We know the answers to these questions … Why then were the relevant demands in this resolution not clearly addressed to the occupying power, not even once?”

“Today the council goes much further than in previous months. European leaders are asking for a sustainable ceasefire, certainly asking also for the freedom of hostages, but showing a strong concern for the situation of the people in Gaza, which is unacceptable. They are starving. So I hope that the council will send a strong message to Israel: stop blocking, stop preventing the food to come into Gaza and take care of the civilians. Certainly Israel has the right to defend, [but] not to revenge.”

“Israel's latest attack on al-Shifa Hospital has shown that, rather than eliminating Hamas, Israel is attempting to eliminate anything that walks or breathes in Gaza. Palestinians have been displaced from their homes to schools, hospitals and other protected facilities that have nonetheless come under attack. What's more no distinction is being made between the Qassam Brigades, the armed wing of Hamas, and the government officers simply carrying out their duties. Anyone who works for a ministry under Hamas and their relatives is considered punishable by killing. As long as the US and other allies, who have warned against a military operation in Rafah, take no action to back their words, Israel will do as it pleases. In a change of tactic, the US is now being used as a scapegoat by Netanyahu for any future failures in eliminating Hamas in Gaza. “America is now being blamed for not committing to Israel's self-defence [in Rafah] and causing it to fail.”
