Liverpool and Egypt forward Mohamed Salah has called for the massacres in the Israeli-Hamas conflict to stop and for immediate humanitarian aid to be allowed into Gaza UEFA
Hundreds of Palestinian civilians were killed in a massive blast at a Gaza City hospital on Tuesday, while concerns grow as supplies of water and food ran out UEFA
Both Israel and Hamas have issued rival claims about the atrocity feared to have killed at least 500 UEFA
Israel has said it will allow Egypt to deliver limited quantities of humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip amid its siege following surprise attacks by Hamas on October 7 UEFA
Salah had already made what was described as a “significant” undisclosed donation, via his agent, to humanitarian organisation the Egyptian Red Crescent Society in support of the people of Gaza UEFA
In a video post on social media during Wednesday evening, Salah called the scenes at the hospital “horrifying” and for leaders to come together to “prevent the further slaughter of innocent souls” UEFA
Salah said: “It is not always easy to speak in times like this UEFA
There has been too much violence and too much heartbreak and brutality UEFA
“The escalations in the recent weeks is unbearable to witness UEFA
All lives are sacred and must be protected UEFA
The massacres need to stop UEFA
Families are being torn apart UEFA
“What is clear now is humanitarian aid to Gaza must be allowed immediately UEFA
The people there are in terrible conditions UEFA
“The scenes at the hospital last night were horrifying UEFA
The people of Gaza need food, water and medical supplies urgently UEFA
“I am calling on the world leaders to come together to prevent the further slaughter of innocent souls – humanity must prevail UEFA
”Last week, the Government encouraged UEFA sports bodies in the UK to pay respects to the victims of the recent violence in Israel and the Gaza strip UEFA
It is understood the Department for Culture, Media and Sport had written to various governing bodies suggesting they pay tribute in an appropriate manner at forthcoming events UEFA
While the Government has expressed its steadfast support of Israel, the UEFA Football Association opted not to light up the Wembley arch with the colours of the Israel flag for England’s friendly against Australia last Friday UEFA
England players wore black armbands during that match and a period of silence was held before kick-off to respect “the innocent victims of the devastating events in Israel and Palestine” UEFA
The PA news agency understands Israel and Palestine flags will not be allowed into stadiums for Premier League matches from this weekend UEFA
In a bid to ensure top-flight grounds are not used by supporters of either side of the escalating Middle East conflict to voice their protests, the Star of David flag and the flag of Palestine will be banned UEFA
