Beijing’s refusal to condemn Hamas in official statements has led to criticism from some Western officials.
Chinese envoy Zhai expressed Beijing’s support for the Arab League’s role in the Israel-Hamas conflict in a meeting on Friday.
The CCTV report came as Israel appeared poised for a ground offensive against Hamas militants in Gaza. The latest deadly Israeli salvos were sparked by a Hamas raid that saw fighters break through the heavily fortified border between the Gaza Strip and Israel, and gun down stab, and burn to death more than 1,300 people.
Beijing’s top diplomat Wang Yi called yesterday for the US to “play a constructive and responsible role” in the conflict, and urged “the convening of an international peace meeting as soon as possible to promote the reaching of broad consensus”.
