President of Mexico calls for ceasefire in Gaza Strip

Mexico City, Apr 5 (Prensa Latina) The president of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, today called for a ceasefire in Gaza, attacked by Israel since last October with a death toll of over 33,000 Palestinians, most of them women and children. .

Enough of this inhuman war that, regardless of who is to blame, what I have no doubt about is that many innocent people are suffering and it has to stop, said the president during his usual press conference from the National Palace.

The president also regretted the recent death of seven collaborators from the NGO World Central Kitchen, directed by Spanish chef José Andrés, after an attack by Israel in the Strip.

Andrés has many restaurants, but he does social work in places where there is hunger, and he went to the Gaza Strip to deliver food and the Israeli government has already recognized that due to a mistake -according to the version of that country’s administration. They bombed the kitchen, the camp and murdered the volunteers, he said.

I mention it and send a hug to his family and also to Andrés, because they came during the tragedy of Hurricane Otis to the city of Acapulco, on the Pacific coast, and they set up kitchens to feed people in need, López Obrador stated.

After more than 180 days of a war classified as genocidal in Gaza, the total number of Palestinian deaths increased to more than 33,000, while more than 75,000 people have been injured, most of them women, children and the elderly.
