The Australian government has been urged by the president of Doctors Without Borders to place sanctions on Israel over the situation in Gaza.
The president of Doctors Without Borders has urged the Australian government to place sanctions on Israel, arguing Israel was "blatantly ignoring" a United Nations resolution calling for a ceasefire. Dr Christos Christou, international president of Médecins Sans Frontières , addressing the National Press Club on Tuesday, spoke about the situation in Gaza, Chad and Sudan.
Australia must apply appropriate sanctions on Israel, as it would to any other global state that refuses to comply with UN security council resolutions. "The Australian government's expressed support for a ceasefire rings hollow when they are supplying the weapons that continue to kill and maim in Gaza.
