SANTIAGO, March 20, 2025 (WAFA) - The Government of Chile expressed its dismay and strong condemnation of the brutal Israeli attack on the civilian population in Gaza, which claimed the lives of more than 400 civilians, including a large number of women and children.

In a press release, the Government stated that this attack constitutes a flagrant violation of the ceasefire agreement, which has been in effect since January 19, as well as of the most fundamental norms of international humanitarian law.

It urgently called for a ceasefire, respect for the agreement, which allows for the release of Israeli and Palestinian political prisoners, and the resumption of the dialogue process for a lasting peace.

It emphasized that a two-state solution, with Palestine and Israel living within internationally recognized borders, in accordance with relevant UN Security Council resolutions, is the path to achieving lasting and sustainable peace.
