Canadian PM Trudeau tells Israel killing of babies in Gaza must end
Canada has maintained that Israel has the right to defend itself against Hamas after the Palestinian militant group attacked southern Israel last month, killing 1,400 people and taking over 200 hostage. But like the United States and other allies, it has expressed increasing concern over the mounting death toll in the battered enclave, where local health officials say 11,000 people have been killed since the conflict started. "The world is witnessing this killing of women, of children, of babies. This has to stop," he told a news conference in British Columbia.
