Norway condemns Israel for ‘brutal warfare’

Norway on Saturday voiced strong criticism against Israel’s “brutal warfare” in Gaza, accusing Tel Aviv of violating the rules of war.

“Israel’s brutal warfare in Gaza includes indiscriminate and disproportionate attacks, as well as measures that prevent the population from receiving humanitarian aid. This is in violation of the rules of war,” Foreign Minister Espen Barth Eide said in a statement, Middle East Monitor reported. 

The Israeli authorities are still largely preventing access to food and necessary emergency aid, he said. The UN warned that without increased access for humanitarian aid and commercial food trade, “Gaza will experience full-scale famine by November,” Eide added.
“Civilians, the sick and wounded must receive protection, food and essential medical assistance,” the minister stressed.
