The Greek premier reiterated that only a political solution can guarantee peace between Israelis and Palestinians, and stability in the wider region, media reports said Thursday. Kyriakos Mitsotakis repeated that Greece acknowledges the Palestinian government, led by President Mahmoud Abbas, as the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people, during a telephone call with Abbas, according to the public broadcaster ERT. He stressed Greece’s longstanding support for a two-state solution and the immediate need for the steady flow of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip. Israel has launched relentless airstrikes on the Gaza Strip following a cross-border attack by the Palestinian resistance group, Hamas, into Israeli territory on Oct. 7. More than 8,400 people have been killed in the conflict, including at least 7,028 Palestinians and 1,400 Israelis. Gaza’s 2.3 million residents have been running out of food, water, medicine, and fuel, and aid convoys allowed into Gaza have carried only a fraction of what is needed.
