Türkiye, Egypt and Qatar on Monday strongly condemned ongoing Israeli violations in the Gaza Strip, saying Israel was targeting health care facilities and medical infrastructure, causing civilian casualties and breaching international law.
In a joint statement issued by the three mediating countries, Türkiye's Foreign Ministry said the attacks, which have killed civilians including women and children, "constitute a flagrant violation of international law and international humanitarian law."
The mediators urged Israel to comply with its obligations under international law and fully uphold its commitments under the ceasefire agreement.
They said continued violations breach the deal and undermine efforts to implement its second phase.
The statement said the violations were continuing even after Hamas and other Palestinian factions announced their acceptance of the roadmap, "especially the provision concerning the confinement of weapons."
Türkiye, Egypt and Qatar warned that the violations threaten de-escalation efforts while worsening humanitarian conditions in Gaza.
The three countries renewed their call for the full protection of civilians, medical facilities and humanitarian personnel.
They also demanded the unhindered delivery of humanitarian aid and medical supplies throughout the Gaza Strip.
Türkiye, Egypt and Qatar urged the international community to pressure Israel to meet its obligations under international law and the ceasefire agreement "in a manner that ensures the completion of President Trump's peace plan."
The mediators noted that Trump had described reaching consensus on the roadmap for the second phase as a "historic agreement."
They stressed the need to prevent any actions that could derail efforts toward sustainable de-escalation, a permanent ceasefire and an end to humanitarian suffering in Gaza.
