CHINA'S special envoy for the Middle East Sun Bigan called for an immediate halt of military activities in Gaza during his meeting with Palestinian National Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas in the West Bank city of Ramallah yesterday.
The two discussed the situation in the Gaza Strip, which has been under intensive Israeli attack for almost three weeks, causing more than 1,000 Palestinians deaths and over 4,600 injuries.
Sun urged all parties to abide by UN Security Council resolution 1860 to avoid additional civilian casualties and ease the humanitarian crisis.
Sun stressed China has long supported the stance held by the PNA and Abbas that the Palestinian issue should be solved politically.
He expressed his hope that the Palestinian side of the conflict could continue to gain international support for its cause, and the dispute could be solved through negotiation and not war.
