“China hopes that Palestine and Israel will resume peace talks as soon as possible and return the peace process in the Middle East to normal,” RIA Novosti quoted the text of the telegram as saying.

Xi Jinping stressed that China will continue to provide humanitarian aid to Palestine to promote the development of the Palestinian economy.

In October, Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba said that Kyiv would formally ask Israel to immediately supply air defense systems.

Earlier, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelensky noted that he was shocked that Israel had not supplied Kyiv with weapons that the Ukrainian authorities had asked for.
