Putin condemns Gaza hospital bombing, urges negotiation
Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Wednesday that the strike on a hospital in Gaza that killed hundreds of Palestinians was a terrible catastrophe that shows that the conflict should be ended.
“As for the strike on the hospital, the tragedy that happened there was a terrible event. Hundreds of dead and hundreds of wounded are, of course, a catastrophe,” Mr Putin said after talks with Chinese President Xi Jinping in Beijing.
“I really hope this will be a signal that we need to end this conflict as soon as possible. In any case, we need to focus on the possibility of starting some contacts and negotiations.”
