Swiss Foreign Minister Ignazio Cassis is under fire from several parliamentarians for comments equating violations of international law by both Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
Critics accuse Ignazio Cassis of echoing Israeli propaganda and distorting the humanitarian crisis.
Politicians from across the spectrum - including the Greens, Centre, and Social Democrats—called Cassis’ stance misleading and lacking neutrality.
Some demanded stronger pressure on Israel to allow humanitarian aid.
Cassis found support mainly within his own Radical Party, which defended his balanced condemnation.
The debate comes amid growing concern over famine risks in Gaza.
