Prime Minister Mark Carney has expressed displeasure over Israel's move to restrict humanitarian aid in Gaza, calling it a violation of international law.

PM Carney stressed the need to shift Israel's control over food distribution amid reports of widespread starvation in the Palestinian territories. He said this work should be in the hands of international organizations.

The Prime Minister said that Canada has also provided aid to many of these international organizations for relief supplies in Gaza, but Israel has prevented them from reaching Gaza.

Carney also reiterated that Canada supports Palestine and Israel being two separate states for peace in the Middle East. He said that a two-state solution can be the only solution to peace.
