Slovenia on Sunday expressed “deep concern” over reports of “attempts to violate” the Gaza ceasefire, stressing the urgent need for full humanitarian access to the enclave, according to reports.
In a statement, the Slovenian Foreign Ministry referred to incidents of violence, alleged “executions by Hamas,” and delays in reopening border crossings following recent attacks near Rafah.
The ministry warned that such acts threatened civilian safety, undermined the ceasefire, and breached international law.
“It is key to open the remaining crossings to Gaza for patients and aid, in particular the Rafah crossing,” the ministry said in a statement shared on the social media platform X.
“We remain committed to working with the #EU, @UN, and regional partners to protect civilians, allow full humanitarian access & support a just and lasting #peace based on the two-state solution,” it added.
The statement followed reports of Israeli airstrikes in Rafah despite the ceasefire agreement. Israeli media claimed the assault came after Hamas allegedly targeted a military vehicle, though senior Hamas member Izzat al-Rishq denied any involvement, affirming the group’s adherence to the truce.
The ceasefire and hostage exchange, brokered under a plan proposed by US President Donald Trump, calls for rebuilding Gaza and forming a new governing mechanism excluding Hamas.
Since October 2023, Israel’s campaign has killed more than 68,100 people and wounded over 170,200, according to Gaza’s Health Ministry.
