In an interview with Australian broadcaster ABC, Safadi said collective steps are needed to halt illegal Israeli actions that undermine prospects for achieving peace.

Safadi welcomed Australia’s recognition of the State of Palestine, stressing the need to fully implement the plan to achieve stability in the Gaza Strip.

He warned that the humanitarian catastrophe in the Gaza Strip could worsen due to Israeli obstacles preventing the delivery of urgently needed humanitarian aid to more than two million Palestinians, who are being confined by Israel to 30% of Gaza’s territory.
