Italy's PM voices concern to President Abbas over escalating Israeli actions

According to a statement issued by Palazzo Chigi, Meloni shared deep concern over recent Israeli decisions that appear to be heading toward further military escalation, emphasizing that the humanitarian situation in Gaza is unjustified and unacceptable." The Prime Minister called for the urgent need for an immediate cessation of hostilities, in order to continue providing humanitarian assistance to a dire civilian population. She also agreed with President Abbas that Hamas must release all hostages and accept that it has no future in governing the Strip. Meloni also reiterated Italy's commitment on the humanitarian front, through the Food for Gaza initiative, including the airdrops currently underway, and the evacuation of more than 150 children in need of treatment so far. She informed President Abbas the arrival of additional children in need of medical care in Italy in the coming days. During the call, the Prime Minister "finally affirmed Italy's readiness to play its part in the stabilization and reconstruction of Gaza, reaffirming the need to work towards a political process leading to a just and lasting peace in the Middle East through a two-state solution."

Which countries joined global push for Palestine recognition since October 2023?
Since the brutal escalation of 'Israel's' military campaign in Gaza following October 7, 2023, a powerful wave of international solidarity has swept across the globe, with nations stepping forward to recognize the State of Palestine or pledging to do so at the upcoming UN General Assembly in September 2025. As of August 2025, approximately 147 of the 193 UN member states recognize Palestine, with the recent and upcoming recognitions poised to push this number higher. This growing movement reflects a resounding rejection of 'Israel's' relentless occupation and the catastrophic humanitarian crisis in Gaza, where over 60,000 Palestinians have been killed, according to Gaza's Health Ministry. These recognitions affirm the Palestinian people's inalienable right to self-determination and statehood, offering hope to a population enduring unimaginable suffering under 'Israeli' bombardment and blockade. - Countries that have officially recognized Palestine - Between April 2024 and February 2025, 10 countries formally extended recognition to Palestine as a sovereign state. The list includes: Barbados (April 19, 2024) Jamaica (April 22, 2024) Trinidad and Tobago (May 2, 2024) The Bahamas (May 7, 2024) Ireland (May 28, 2024) Norway (May 28, 2024) Spain (May 28, 2024) Slovenia (June 4, 2024) Armenia (June 21, 2024) Mexico (February 5, 2025) - Countries intending to recognize Palestine - The momentum for Palestinian statehood is set to intensify at the UN General Assembly in September 2025, with several nations pledging to recognize Palestine in a collective stand. These countries include: Australia (September 2025) France (September 2025) Malta (September 2025) San Marino (planned for 2025, exact date TBD) - Conditional recognitions - Two significant Western countries, Canada and the United Kingdom, have conditioned their recognition of Palestine on political and peace-related developments. Canada: Prime Minister Mark Carney stated that Canada would recognize Palestine in September 2025 if the Palestinian Authority (PA) commits to holding elections in 2026 and implements other democratic reforms. United Kingdom: Prime Minister Keir Starmer announced the UK's intention to recognize Palestine in September 2025 unless 'Israel' agrees to a ceasefire in Gaza, takes concrete steps to end the humanitarian crisis, recommits to a two-state solution, and clarifies that no annexation of the West Bank will occur. - Actively considering the recognition of Palestine - Portugal: Portugal is actively considering recognition, with discussions underway as of July 2025. New Zealand: New Zealand's Cabinet is set to make a formal decision in September on whether to recognize a Palestinian state. - 'Israeli'-US anger - The Israeli Occupation has fiercely opposed these recognitions, with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu labeling them a 'reward for terror' and falsely claiming they strengthen Hamas. Such rhetoric dismisses the humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza and the legitimate aspirations of the Palestinian people. The United States, 'Israel's' staunchest ally, has echoed this opposition, with President Donald Trump calling France's decision 'reckless." The US has repeatedly vetoed UN resolutions for Palestinian full membership, obstructing global efforts to uphold Palestinian rights. Yet, the tide is turning. The recognitions by Ireland, Norway, and Spain, and the planned actions by France, Canada, and the UK, signal a growing defiance of US-'Israeli' dominance in shaping the narrative. These nations are prioritizing the cries of Gaza's people over diplomatic deference, recognizing that peace cannot come without justice for Palestinians.
