Zhang Jun, China's permanent representative to the UN made the comments during a news briefing on the work of China's presidency of the UN Security Council on Wednesday local time.
"It is imperative to promote a cease-fire and halt the fighting, prevent further civilian casualties, prevent a larger-scale humanitarian disaster and prevent the conflict from spilling over," Ambassador Zhang Jun added, according to Global Times.
The Zionist Israeli regime launched an aggression on Gaza Strip in Palestine on October 7 following the Hamas-led attack on southern the Occupied Lands known as the Al-Aqsa Storm Operation during which it killed more than 1,400 Zionist regime soldiers and armed settlers and taking more than 200 of them to the besieged enclave as prisoners of war.
The death toll continues to mount in the Gaza Strip, which has been reeling from a month of relentless Israeli attacks and a tightened siege.
Nearly 9,800 Palestinians, most of them women and children have been killed in 30 days of Israeli attacks on Gaza.
