Steps towards ceasefire cannot be one-sided

[Australia's foreign minister] Penny Wong says, "steps towards ceasefire" in Israel-Hamas war "cannot be one-sided."

Actually, it's just the opposite: if you are committing war crimes, it behooves you to stop — regardless of what your enemies are doing. Neither Israel nor HAMAS can justify continuing crimes on the grounds that "our enemy is committing crimes and/or fighting us."
