“We want him to know that the most important issue is to get the hostages back,” said 67-year-old Nehama Krysler.
German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock said Israel’s raids on Gaza “are shattering the tangible hopes of so many Israelis and Palestinians of an end to suffering on all sides”.
European Union foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas called the new strikes on Gaza “unacceptable”.
The war began with Hamas’s 2023 attack on Israel, which resulted in 1,218 deaths, mostly civilians, according to Israeli figures.
Gaza’s civil defence agency said Wednesday that at least 436 people had been killed since Israel resumed its intense strikes.
As of Monday, before the latest strikes, the overall death toll in Gaza since the start of the war stood at more than 48,570, according to the territory’s health ministry.
