Rishi Sunak has pledged aid to Israel as he “mourns the lack of civilians of each faith” killed within the Middle East conflict.
Speaking at a press conference in Israel on Thursday, Mr Sunak said: “We have seen the scenes over the past day which have shocked all of us, particularly on the hospital and we mourn the loss of each innocent life — civilians of each faith, every nationality who’ve been killed.
“And we also recognise that the Palestinian persons are victims of Hamas too.
“And that’s the reason I welcome your decision yesterday that you simply took to be certain that routes into Gaza might be opened for humanitarian aid to enter.”
