Australia Pushes for Two-State Solution Amidst Gaza Occupation Concerns
Australia is trying to help solve the problems between Israel and Palestine.
They want both sides to have their own countries, like a two-state solution.
Australia's leaders talked to Palestine's leaders about getting food and help into the war zone and freeing hostages.
They also talked about their commitment for both sides to live peacefully.
If a solution is not found, Australia worries there might not be a Palestine left.
The talks follow reports that Israel may plan on taking over more of Gaza.
Australia calls for a two-state solution in the Israel-Palestine conflict.
Foreign Minister Penny Wong stated failure to do so could lead to the non-existence of Palestine.
Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese engaged in discussions with Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas regarding humanitarian aid and hostage release.
Australia, along with allies like Canada and France, is expected to recognize Palestinian statehood in September.
The call for a two-state solution comes amid reports of Netanyahu's plans for a "full occupation" of Gaza.
