The Department of Foreign Affairs yesterday “completely disassociated” itself from Ambassador Teodoro Locsin Jr.’s statement that Palestinian children should be killed.

A Palestinian child injured in an Israeli air strike is carried inside the Nasser hospital in Khan Yunis in the southern of Gaza Strip, on Oct. 17, 2023. Thousands of people, both Israeli and Palestinians have died since October 7, 2023, after Palestinian Hamas militants based in the Gaza Strip, entered southern Israel in a surprise attack leading Israel to declare war on Hamas in Gaza on October 8.

“My apologies to those who did misconstrue my sentiments and did in fact get triggered – I obviously was not advocating for the literal death of anyone, but rather simply for the end of any ideology that condones terrorism in any way, shape or form,” he added. The United Nations Children’s Fund said one million children in Gaza are now facing a critical protection and humanitarian crisis.

Cacdac added that it would take a long process to bring Filipinos back to the country even if OFWs cross through Egypt.
