China is deeply concerned and worried about the deteriorating situation in Israel and Palestine which has caused many casualties, said Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Zhang Qiyue in Beijing Thursday.

Zhang made the remark when asked to comment on the latest suicide bombing in central Jerusalem on Thursday and the Israeli army's invading of a residential area in south Gaza Strip on Wednesday.

"All the past facts have proved over and over that those violence-against-violence activities only serve to further exacerbate the situation but do no help to solve the question," the spokeswoman said.

"China opposes any kind of activity which will harm the efforts,from Israel and Palestine as well, towards a peaceful solution," Zhang said, adding that China asks Israel and Palestine to keep restraint and return to the correct track of peaceful talks.
