JAKARTA (Bernama): Indonesia has condemned Israel’s attempt to undermine the ceasefire agreement by breaching initial provisions, unilaterally demanding an extension of the first phase, and avoiding discussions on the second phase.

In a statement, the Foreign Affairs Ministry said blocking humanitarian aid to Gaza and using it as leverage in ceasefire negotiations constitutes a war crime and a clear violation of international humanitarian law and human rights.

"Indonesia calls on the international community to pressure Israel to immediately allow the delivery of humanitarian aid and resume second-phase negotiations in line with the ceasefire agreement,” the statement read.

Indonesia also reiterated its strong support for the two-state solution as the only viable path to lasting peace in the region. - Bernama
