JAKARTA - Chinese authorities say they strongly condemn the shooting incident in the Gaza Strip, as residents crowded a convoy of humanitarian aid in the Palestinian enclave Thursday morning.
"China was shocked by the incident and strongly condemned it," said Foreign Ministry spokesman Mao Ning, quoted by The Times of Israel March 1.
"We express our sorrow for the victims and our sympathy for those who were injured," Mao continued.
At least 112 people were killed and more than 280 injured in an incident near Gaza City Thursday, Palestinian health officials said. The civilian casualties this time were the largest in recent weeks.
United Nations (UN) Secretary-General Antonio Guterres said the killing of more than 100 people awaiting humanitarian assistance in the Gaza Strip, Palestine was a situation requiring an effective independent investigation.
Hamas blamed Israel Defense Forces (IDF) for the death. However, the military said most of the victims were caused by pushes and people who were hit by supply vehicles.
