The Minister of International Relations and Cooperation, Maite Nkoana-Mashabane, on Tuesday addressed the media on various international developments, including the conflict between Israel and Palestine in Cape Town.

More than 100 people have died in tit-for-tat attacks between Hamas and Israel.

Nkoana-Mashabane said the South African government is extremely concerned at the escalating conflict in the Gaza strip.

Nkoana Mashabane has called on both sides to halt attacks and agree to a ceasefire. 

The Palestinian Authority is due to present its bid for non-state membership of the UN on the 29th of November.
