Saudi Arabia’s foreign ministry released a statement on Saturday condemning any ground operations by Israeli forces that may threaten the lives of Palestinian civilians.
“The Kingdom condemns and denounces the ground operations carried out by the Israeli army in the Gaza Strip, and warns of the danger of continuing to carry out these blatant and unjustified violations of international law against our brotherly Palestinians,” the statement said.
Early on Saturday, the Israeli military said it had entered northern Gaza overnight and expanded military operations in the Gaza Strip as it stepped up its assault on the Hamas group.
Egypt also said on Saturday that “Israeli obstacles” are impeding the delivery of aid to the Palestinian Gaza Strip.”It is unfortunate that the process of transporting aid to the Gaza Strip faces major logistical problems imposed by the Israeli side,” an Egyptian foreign ministry spokesman said in a statement -Reuters
