Fu Cong, China's permanent representative to the United Nations, urged Israel on Wednesday to stop weaponizing humanitarian assistance, lift the blockade of Gaza and the restrictions on humanitarian access, and cooperate fully with the UN and other humanitarian agencies.

In remarks at the UN Security Council briefing on the humanitarian situation in Gaza, Fu said the Gaza conflict and the situation in the Middle East have been at the forefront of the council's work since October last year, but the situation has not improved so far, and "instead, it has continued to deteriorate."

"The authority of international law seems to exist in name only for certain states, and the bottom line of international humanitarian law has been repeatedly shattered," he lamented.

Fu stressed, "We cannot accept that death and hunger have become the new normal in Gaza."
