German Foreign Minister Annalena Baerbock has arrived in Israel ahead of her meetings with Israeli President Isaac Herzog and Foreign Minister Israel Katz. While in Israel, she will also meet the families of Israeli captives held in Gaza.
Baerbock wrote on X ahead of her trip that “the region must emerge from the eternal cycle of violence”.
“To achieve this, Gaza must no longer pose a threat to Israel’s existence, Hamas must lay down its weapons and Hezbollah and Houthis must stop their bombing,” Minister said.
