As the conflict between Israel and Hamas continues, Australia will provide another $10 million in aid to help those in Gaza.
The funds will be used by the World Food Program to help those in the area facing the threat of famine.
Anne Aly, the minister for youth, announced the aid during an international conference on the crisis.
According to Aly, Israel must abide by the terms of the International Court’s order regarding the flow of humanitarian aid to Gaza.
She also thanked Jordan, Egypt, and the UN for their efforts in helping the Palestinians.
On October 7, a massive attack by Hamas targeted and killed over a thousand Israeli civilians.
Australia has already committed over 70 million dollars in aid to the region.
According to the authorities in Palestine, over 38,000 people have died due to the invasion of Gaza.
The objective of the operation was to free the hostages of Israel and destroy Hamas.
Penny Wong, Australia’s Foreign Minister, urged both parties to stop the violence and agree to a ceasefire.
As a supporter of the ceasefire, Australia is urging both parties to implement it immediately.
Any delay in its implementation would only lead to more deaths, she noted.
