Déclaration conjointe des dirigeants de la France, du Royaume-Uni et du Canada sur la situation à Gaza et en Cisjordanie.

Israël a subi un attentat atroce le 7 octobre. Nous avons toujours soutenu le droit d‘Israël à défendre les Israéliens contre le terrorisme. Mais cette escalade est totalement disproportionnée.

Nous ne resterons pas les bras croisés pendant que le gouvernement Netanyahou poursuit ces actions scandaleuses. Si Israël ne met pas fin à la nouvelle offensive militaire et ne lève pas ses restrictions sur l‘aide humanitaire, nous prendrons d‘autres mesures concrètes en réponse.

Nous nous opposons à toute tentative d‘expansion des colonies en Cisjordanie. Israël doit mettre fin aux implantations qui sont illégales et compromettent la viabilité d‘un État palestinien ainsi que la sécurité des Israéliens et des Palestiniens.  Nous n‘hésiterons pas à prendre d‘autres mesures, y compris des sanctions ciblées.

(…)

Nous continuerons à travailler avec l‘Autorité palestinienne, les partenaires régionaux, Israël et les États-Unis afin de parvenir à un consensus sur les dispositions à prendre pour l‘avenir de Gaza, en s‘appuyant sur le plan arabe. Nous affirmons le rôle important de la conférence de haut niveau sur la solution à deux États qui se tiendra aux Nations unies en juin pour dégager un consensus international autour de cet objectif. Nous sommes déterminés à reconnaître un État palestinien en tant que contribution à la réalisation d‘une solution à deux États et nous sommes prêts à travailler avec d‘autres à cette fin.

Joint statement from the leaders of the United Kingdom, France and Canada on the situation in Gaza and the West Bank

(May 19, 2025)

Israel suffered a heinous attack on October 7. We have always supported Israel’s right to defend Israelis against terrorism. But this escalation is wholly disproportionate.

We will not stand by while the Netanyahu Government pursues these egregious actions. If Israel does not cease the renewed military offensive and lift its restrictions on humanitarian aid, we will take further concrete actions in response.

We oppose any attempt to expand settlements in the West Bank. Israel must halt settlements which are illegal and undermine the viability of a Palestinian state and the security of both Israelis and Palestinians.  We will not hesitate to take further action, including targeted sanctions.

(…)

We will continue to work with the Palestinian Authority, regional partners, Israel and the United States to finalise consensus on arrangements for Gaza’s future, building on the Arab plan. We affirm the important role of the High-level Two-State Solution Conference at the UN in June in building international consensus around this aim. And we are committed to recognising a Palestinian state as a contribution to achieving a two-state solution and are prepared to work with others to this end.

The march was timed to commemorate the 77th anniversary of the Nakba, the ‘catastrophe’, of 1948 in which more than 800,000 Palestinian civilians were driven by force from their homes and land, with many massacres and rapes, to create the state of Israel.

Aid vessel bound for Gaza attacked near Malta, Cyprus-based ship received SOS

Initial reports said Cyprus received an SOS distress signal and sent a ship to help extinguish a fire which had resulted on board.

The defence ministry in Cyprus clarified that the ship was aided by a Limassol-based vessel, sailing under a Liberian flag, which happened to be in the area and responded to the SOS as per international maritime requirements.

UPDATED | Freedom Flotilla Coalition says ship attacked by drone just outside Maltese territorial waters

The Maltese government has disputed claims that it did not offer assistance to the Conscience, insisting that a tugboat with firefighting equipment was on site within minutes.

In a statement on Friday morning, the government released a timeline of events, including a photo of the tugboat spraying water onto the humanitarian ship.

The Conscience, which has remained anchored just outside territorial waters, is being monitored by the authorities.

The timeline provided by the government being reproduced below contradicts the claim that the humanitarian vessel received no assistance:

00:20am (local time): Malta Vessel Traffic Services (VTS) received a Mayday call from the passenger vessel Conscience, reporting a fire on the bow while outside territorial waters. The vessel had 12 crew members on board and 4 civilian passengers; no casualties were reported. The crew confirmed the fire was not under control and requested immediate assistance.

00:21am: A nearby tug located approximately one nautical mile away contacted Malta VTS, confirmed it was equipped with firefighting capabilities and offered immediate support. The tug arrived on scene and began firefighting operations.

1:28am: The fire was reported under control. An Armed Forces of Malta patrol vessel was also dispatched to provide further assistance.

2:13am: All crew were confirmed safe but refused to board the tug. Assistance was provided to support interior firefighting efforts.

3:45am: The vessel and its crew were secure.

Gaza aid vessel ‚attacked by drones‘ just outside Malta waters

Times of Malta is informed that the fire was put out in the early hours on Friday, and an Armed Forces of Malta patrol boat was dispatched to the location of the vessel.

Hours after the fire was put out, Flotilla and activists supporting the campaign were still urging the Maltese authorities to rescue the people aboard.

However, the Maltese government told the media that the people on board had refused to board a tug vessel that had put out the fire following contact with the Malta Vessel Traffic Services.

Freedom Flotilla Attacked — Ship in Distress, Immediate Action Needed from Maltese Government

The Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre in Rome advised that a tugboat has been sent out and is on the scene. Our communications with the vessel were destroyed in the attack and we are unable to confirm this. Under international maritime law and conventions Malta is obliged to act and ensure the safety of a civilian ship in distress within its proximity. The lack of response and information about the rescue efforts breaches international customary law.

Sollte eine Mehrheit der Abgeordneten der Regierung das Vertrauen entziehen, wäre auch der Haushalt durchgefallen.
