China is deeply concerned by the escalation of the conflict between Israel and Palestine and urges relevant parties to exercise restraint to the greatest extent, according to China's Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning.
“An urgent mission currently is needed to enhance situation management. China urges relevant parties, especially Israel to remain calm and restrained and to avoid any action that would worsen the situation,” he told the ambassadors.
“China actively appeals to Arab states’ demand and requests the UN Security Council to carry out urgent discussion over the situation and work to cool the situation down,” Mao Ning said.
