Canada Calls Israel’s Gaza Surge ‘Horrific,’ Suggests It Violates International Law
Canada labels Israel's Gaza offensive as violating international law and supports a UN report accusing Israel of genocide, urging ceasefire, aid, and hostage release.
- On September 17, 2025, Canada condemned Israel's recent intensified military operations in Gaza City, describing the actions as appalling amid the ongoing heavy bombardment of the Gaza Strip.
- The escalation follows a UN Human Rights Council report released Tuesday concluding Israel is committing genocide in Gaza, a claim Israel has rejected.
- Canada, represented by Foreign Affairs Minister Anita Anand during discussions with Arab ambassadors on Monday, called for a swift and lasting halt to hostilities, full access for humanitarian assistance, and the freedom of all detained individuals.
- Prime Minister Mark Carney confirmed plans Monday to recognize Palestinian statehood, and Justice Minister Sean Fraser said genocide determinations require a legal process with evidence submissions.
- This situation has prompted widespread international condemnation and ongoing evaluation of Canada's relationship with Israel, reflecting heightened global concern over the conflict's humanitarian impact.
