Recently, there has been renewed clashes between Palestine and Israel, with both sides ignoring the ceasefire agreement, which has already resulted in thousands of deaths and injuries. In addition, the attitude of the international community towards the conflict has also attracted widespread attention, including China, the United States, Russia and European countries, which have made their positions clear.
What is surprising is the statements of Ukraine, India and Japan on the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. In May 2021, fierce armed conflict broke out between the Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) and Israel.
After 11 days of fighting, the two sides announced a ceasefire. However, at noon on 21 May, after the ceasefire came into force, another skirmish broke out.
In the courtyard of the Al-Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, Israel ** threw gas bombs and ** bombs at worshippers, causing people to **. No personnel** have been reported at this time.
This hostile relationship cannot be easily resolved, and clashes between Palestine and Israel have broken out again in recent days. Palestinian** convened an emergency meeting and announced the cessation of all contacts and meetings with Israel.
In the early morning of 7 October, Israel was hit by a massive rocket attack with missiles originating from Palestinian militant groups bases in the Gaza Strip. The attack led to the immediate activation of alarm systems in several Israeli cities, and even deafening sounds could be heard clearly in Israeli towns near Gaza.
The Israeli side updated the information and confirmed that one person had been killed in the rocket attack, and 16 others were injured to varying degrees, two of whom were seriously injured.
In the face of a major blow, the IDF immediately issued a statement declaring a state of war and stating that Hamas was fully responsible for the attack. Surprisingly, Hamas was not intimidated and launched it"Al-Aqsa floods"action, firing ** thousands of rockets into Israel.
On 7 October, clashes between the two sides resulted in a large number of **, with 40 Israeli dead and more than 700 injured, compared to 198 dead on the Palestinian side.
On the afternoon of October 8, Israel** reported that nearly 1,900 people had been injured in the intensity of the clashes. The streets are empty, everyone is at risk, and no one knows the whereabouts of the Hamas rockets.
* Heavy setbacks, economic damage, and large-scale ** activities have also erupted in many cities in the United States.
There was a-for-tat clash on the streets of the United States, with Palestinian supporters and Israeli supporters part. In the United States, there are a large number of Palestinians who have launched a campaign outside the Israeli embassy calling on the United States to stop aid to Israel.
The conflict has sparked widespread concern around the world. Remarkably, the conflict began with an unprecedentedly active attack by Hamas.
It is worth noting that Hamas militants successfully infiltrated into Israel and captured a number of Israeli soldiers, including a *** Israeli colonel, who is Israel's highest-ranking officer to lose since the beginning of the conflict.
More than 500 Palestinians have been killed in the conflict, and Israeli retaliation is likely to escalate further, leading to an increase in the number of Palestinians. After the outbreak of conflict, the international community has not only paid attention to the conflict itself, but also the attitudes of countries around the world.
According to reports by the Observation Network and the Global Times, the international community has three positions: one for Israel, one for Palestine, and one for neutrality.
Those familiar with history may have guessed that many Western countries, including the United States, support Israel. Biden made it clear that the United States strongly supports Israel's security, and that this support is unwavering.
He even sternly warned Israel's adversaries that the United States would not sit idly by and might provide more substantial assistance or even engage directly in the conflict if the war expanded.
The United States spoke out, and other countries followed suit, with France, Germany, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and other Western countries condemning Hamas. The UN has taken a clear position and is aligned with Western countries, with António Guterres condemning Hamas's attack on Israel in the strongest terms and urging both sides to ease tensions.
At the same time, countries in the Middle East, such as Iran, cartels, and Saudi Arabia, have chosen to support Palestine.
The solidarity and support of the countries of the Middle East for Palestine is not unexpected, because there are long-standing contradictions and hostilities between Israel and the countries of the Middle East, and there have been five large-scale wars between the two sides in history.
In addition to Palestine itself, other countries such as China, Russia, Turkey and Egypt have also chosen a neutral attitude, calling on both sides to exercise restraint and prevent the conflict from escalating.
Despite this, Hamas's defiance has not been understood and supported by all countries, and Saudi Arabia has repeatedly warned Israel.
Historical experience has proven that the use of force cannot resolve contradictions, and the only way to resolve them is to cease fire and return to the negotiating table. At the moment, the world is watching the attitudes of Ukraine, India and Japan.
It is worth mentioning that during the Russian-Ukrainian conflict, Israel did not provide direct military assistance to Ukraine, and the Ukrainian side also expressed dissatisfaction with this.
Zelenskyy quickly expressed support for Israel after the incident, saying that "the right to self-defense cannot be questioned." This decision is quite surprising, and it seems to have a sense of "repaying grievances with virtue".
However, this attitude of Zelensky may only be to win Israel's favor and pave the way for the next request for Israeli military assistance. By contrast, Japan, as an Asian country, ended up condemning Hamas, as the West, despite calling for restraint on both sides.
The recent statements of Japan and India show their stance and attitude in international affairs, that is, they stand on the side of the United States and Western countries and lack the ability to think independently. India's statement of support for Israel is also seen as an attempt to repay the West's support for India in its diplomatic confrontation with Canada.
