The South African Government has welcomed the ceasefire brokered by Egypt between Palestine and Israel following two days of Israel’s aerial attacks on Gaza.
The truce, announced on Tuesday by Hamas was intended to end two days of Israeli aerial attacks on Gaza after a covert Israeli operation inside the strip, to which Palestinian responded with rocket fire.
This latest flare-up is the worst since the 50-day conflict in 2014.
In a statement, the International Relations Department (Dirco) has called for maximum restraint and hopes that there will be no renewed escalation in Gaza or in any of the occupied Palestinian Territories.
“We reiterate our view that there can be no military solution to the Palestine-Israel conflict.”
Dirco says the goodwill displayed by both the Palestinians and Israeli’s should serve as a catalyst in resuming the long-stalled Middle East Peace Process (MEPP), leading to a Two-State solution.
