Canadian Foreign Minister Anita Anand has expressed concern over Israeli government policies, specifically the advancement of construction plans near Ma'ale Adumim. Anand's comments, made after discussions with officials from the United Kingdom and France, highlight worries that these actions threaten the prospects for a two-state solution. The proposed E1 project, which aims to connect Jerusalem with Ma'ale Adumim, has drawn criticism for potentially fragmenting the West Bank and hindering the formation of a future Palestinian state. Canada has reiterated its call for a ceasefire, the release of hostages, the disarmament of Hamas, and unrestricted humanitarian access in Gaza. In recent weeks, Canada has also participated in coordinated airdrops of humanitarian aid to civilians in the region.
