The Russian leader sent his condolences to the families of Israelis and citizens of other countries who were killed or injured in the fighting between Israel and Hamas over the past three weeks.
The Israel-Hamas conflict has so far killed more than 6,500 people in the Gaza Strip and about 1,500 people in Israel.
The international community has called on all sides to immediately cease fire and sit at the negotiating table to avoid casualties and damage to civilians.
On October 25, the United Nations Security Council did not approve Russia’s resolution on the Israel-Hamas conflict.
On the same day, the draft resolution proposed by the US was also not approved by the Security Council.
The US draft received 10 votes in favor, 3 votes against and 2 abstentions.
The Israel-Hamas conflict is about to enter its fourth week, but there is no sign of cooling down.
`We have eliminated thousands of Hamas fighters. This is just the beginning. The army is preparing for a ground attack (on Gaza),` Prime Minister Netanyahu said on national television.
Immediately after the October 7 rocket attack by Hamas, Israel mobilized tanks and soldiers to the border with Gaza.
The Wall Street Journal, citing knowledgeable sources, said that Israel has agreed to postpone entering Gaza for the time being so that the US can deploy a missile defense system to the area to protect its forces there.
The US and Israel have not commented on this information.
