President Vladimir Putin says Russia is ready to give all possible assistance to alleviate the suffering of Gaza’s civilians and help de-escalate the conflict.
Moscow says an international monitoring mission should go to Gaza to monitor the humanitarian situation.
“Vladimir Putin reaffirmed the principle position of rejecting and condemning terrorism in all its forms,” the Kremlin said in a statement. “At the same time, it is extremely important that countering terrorist threats does not lead to such grave consequences for the civilian population.”
Russia backed a UN Security Council resolution for a Gaza ceasefire that was vetoed by the United States on Friday.
