Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yusuf Tuggar, emphasizes the importance of both sides exercising restraint and placing the safety of civilians as a top priority.
This diplomatic move by Nigeria aligns with international efforts to urge a peaceful resolution to the conflict in the Middle East. The Israeli-Palestinian crisis has seen a surge in violence, resulting in casualties and widespread destruction, including airstrikes and rocket attacks.
Nigeria's call for de-escalation underscores its commitment to international peace and stability. The nation joins other countries and organizations in advocating for an end to hostilities and a return to negotiations to address the root causes of the conflict.
