UK, France, and Canada Threaten Sanctions On Israel If Gaza Genocide Continues

The leaders of Britain, France and Canada have warned Israel that their countries would take action if it does not stop a renewed military offensive in Gaza and lift aid restrictions.

"The Israeli Government's denial of essential humanitarian assistance to the civilian population is unacceptable and risks breaching International Humanitarian Law," a joint statement released by the British government said.

"We oppose any attempt to expand settlements in the West Bank… We will not hesitate to take further action, including targeted sanctions."

After nearly three months of a total blockade, the World Health Organization issued a stark warning on the humanitarian crisis in the besieged Gaza Strip, saying "two million people are starving."
