    MADRID: Spain will present a draft resolution at the UN General Assembly aimed at “proposing urgent measures to stop the killing of innocent civilians and ensure humanitarian aid” in Gaza, Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said Wednesday.Sanchez told the Spanish parliament that “the international community cannot remain indifferent to what is happening” in the Palestinian territory, where Israel resumed its offensive against Hamas in March after a two-month ceasefire.The Socialist premier has been one of the most outspoken critics of Israel’s devastating war in Gaza, which has caused shortages of food, water, fuel and medicine.Spain also broke with some European allies and infuriated Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government last year by recognising a Palestinian state.The war started after Hamas launched an unprecedented attack on Israel from Gaza on October 7, 2023 which resulted in the deaths of 1,218 people, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally based on official Israeli figures.Palestinian militants also abducted 251 people that day, of whom 58 are still held in Gaza, including 34 the Israeli military says are dead.Israel’s retaliatory military campaign has killed at least 52,653 people, mainly civilians, according to the health ministry in Hamas-run Gaza.
