Statement by the Prime Minister on violence in Gaza Strip
OTTAWA, May 16, 2018 /CNW/ - The Prime Minister, Justin Trudeau, today issued the following statement on the violence in the Gaza Strip:
"Canada deplores and is gravely concerned by the violence in the Gaza Strip that has led to a tragic loss of life and injured countless people. We are appalled that Dr. Tarek Loubani, a Canadian citizen, is among the wounded ? along with so many unarmed people, including civilians, members of the media, first responders, and children.
"We are doing everything we can to assist Dr. Loubani and his family, and to determine how a Canadian citizen came to be injured. We are engaging with Israeli officials to get to the bottom of these events.
"Reported use of excessive force and live ammunition is inexcusable. It is imperative we establish the facts of what is happening in Gaza. Canada calls for an immediate independent investigation to thoroughly examine the facts on the ground ? including any incitement, violence, and the excessive use of force.
"Canada stands ready to assist in such an endeavour. We will work closely with our international partners and through international institutions to address this serious situation."
