Chancellor Scholz concerns over raising tensions in Middle East

Berlin, Aug 11 (Prensa Latina) Germany’s Prime Minister Olaf Scholz concerned Sunday over raising tensions in the Middle East, which might lead to a regional war; thus, he requested Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to de-escalate attacks on Gaza.

According to the German communications office, Scholz held a phone conversation with Netanyahu, in which he attached “importance to breaking off the destructive spiral of violence, defusing tensions and working constructively towards de-escalation.”

The German Prime Minister stressed once again that now is the time to seal the agreement on the release of hostages and a ceasefire; as civilian casualties and human suffering in the Gaza Strip are enormous.
