Let us know what the world leaders said on the ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestine.
Antonio Guterres
According to a spokesman for UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, “Seven people were killed in a terrorist attack outside Jerusalem’s entire house. This was a despicable attack because it happened at a place of worship.” I have urged an end to the violence.” The UN said that it was one of the deadliest attacks by the Israeli army so far.
Joe Biden
According to the White House, US President Joe Biden has spoken with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu about the shooting attack in Jerusalem. Seven Israelis lost their lives in the attack. Biden called this attack against the civilized world.
Emmanuel Macron
French President Emmanuel Macron condemned the attack by tweeting and called it disgusting. “This violence should be avoided at all costs,” he said. He said that his thoughts are with the victims, their relatives and the Israeli people.
Please tell that this struggle in the Middle East has been going on for at least 100 years. There is a dispute over areas like West Bank, Gaza Strip and Golan Heights. Palestine claims East Jerusalem including these areas. At the same time, Israel is not ready to give up its claim on Jerusalem.
