Jerusalem - Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi
Livni, on a visit to Paris on Thursday, reiterated her
government's rejection of a French-proposed ceasefire in the
Gaza Strip to allow in humanitarian aid, her office said.
"There is no humanitarian crisis in the Strip, and therefore
there is no need for a humanitarian truce," the Foreign Ministry
quoted Livni as saying in a statement.
"Israel has been
supplying comprehensive humanitarian aid to the Strip ... and
has even been stepping this up by the day."
