Arab world, US split on Gaza ceasefire as Palestinian death toll reaches 9500

Arab world, US split on Gaza ceasefire as Palestinian death toll reaches 9500

Arab world, US split on Gaza ceasefire as Palestinian death toll reaches 9500

GAZA/AMMAN: The United States and its Arab allies appeared divided over Israel’s military offensive in Gaza to defeat Hamas, as Washington, alongside Israel, resisted pressure for an immediate ceasefire despite the rising death toll among Palestinian civilians.

In a rare display of a public split, Arab foreign ministers at a press conference pushed U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken to persuade Israel to agree to a ceasefire. The top U.S. diplomat, however, dismissed the idea, saying such a halt would only benefit Hamas, allowing the militant Islamist Palestinian group to regroup and attack again.

Blinken is set on Sunday to resume his Middle East trip, his second to the region since the decades-old Israeli-Palestinian conflict reignited on Oct. 7 when fighters from Hamas, which runs the Gaza Strip, burst over the border into Israel, killing 1,400 people and taking more than 240 others hostage.

Israel has since struck Gaza from the air, imposed a siege and launched a ground assault, stirring global alarm at humanitarian conditions in the enclave and, Gaza health officials said on Saturday, killing more than 9,488 Palestinians.

Palestinian news agency WAFA said 51 Palestinians, mostly women and children, were killed and scores wounded in an Israeli bombardment of Gaza’s Maghazi refugee camp  on Saturday night. Reuters could not independently verify the WAFA report.

The Israeli military did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

The growing number of civilian deaths has intensified international calls for a ceasefire, but Washington, like Israel, has so far dismissed them, even though it has sought to persuade Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government to accept localized pauses. The Israeli leader rejected that idea after he met Blinken on Friday.

On Saturday, when asked by reporters if there was any progress on achieving a humanitarian pause, U.S. President Joe Biden said “Yes” and gave a thumbs-up as he departed a church in Rehoboth Beach, Delaware.

But it was unclear how long the Biden administration could resist such calls, with pro-Palestinian demonstrators staging protests on Saturday in cities around the world, including London, Berlin, Paris, Istanbul and Washington, to demand a ceasefire.

“This war is just going to produce more pain for Palestinians, for Israelis, and this is going to push us all again into the abyss of hatred and dehumanisation,” Jordanian Foreign Minister Ayman Safadi said in a joint news conference with Blinken. “So that needs to stop.”

Palestinian witnesses said Israel hit Al-Fakhoura school in Jabalia, where thousands of evacuees were living, earlier on Saturday. The Israeli military said a preliminary inquiry suggested it had not targeted the location “but the explosion may have been a result of IDF (Israel Defence Forces) fire aimed at another target”.

Arab leaders have also appeared reluctant to make comprehensive comments about the future of Gaza, saying the focus should remain on stopping the war and that it wasn’t possible to know what the enclave would look like once the fighting stopped.

“This is premature at this time,” Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry said at the same news conference. “You have to concentrate on the subject at hand,” he said, referring to humanitarian aid for Gaza and the cessation of hostilities.
