Canada has joined 27 other countries in calling for the war in Gaza to “end now,” issuing a joint statement that was rebuffed by Israel.
Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand called the situation in the Gaza Strip “horrific” as she announced Canada’s stance on July 21. Canada is calling for “an immediate ceasefire, the release of all hostages and a full resumption of humanitarian aid, including food,” Anand said on X.
