BERLIN (AFP): Germany urged Israel on Monday to guarantee “realistic” protection to civilians in the Gaza Strip, as Israel moved ground forces into the south of the territory in its war on Hamas.
“Something we expect from Israel is that they not only urge civilians to leave the danger zone, but that they are in a realistic position to find safe shelter elsewhere,” foreign ministry spokesman Sebastian Fischer told a regular press briefing.
“Too many civilians have already been killed in this war,” he said.
