Portugal urges Israel to stop attacks after 3 nationals killed in bomb attack in Gaza
MADRID (AA) – Portugal’s Foreign Minister Jose Gomes Cravinho has expressed deep sorrow over the deaths of three Portuguese nationals, including two children, in recent Israeli bombing attacks in the Gaza Strip.
The deaths occurred November 15 in a bombing attack in the southern Gaza Strip.
Cravinho conveyed condolences of the government in a statement and said it was saddened by the deaths of five people, three of whom were Portuguese.
He expressed his “dissatisfaction” with his Israeli counterpart, Eli Cohen, about the bombing in a telephone call and urged Israel to “stop these bombings.”
Since Israel started bombarding Gaza following Hamas’s October 7 cross-border attack, at least 12,000 Palestinians have been killed, including more than 8,300 women and children, and 30,000 have been injured, according to the territory’s Health Ministry.
An Israeli blockade has also cut Gaza off from fuel, electricity and water supplies, and reduced aid deliveries to a small trickle.
